Art Brokerage: (1943-2008) Ronald K Fritkin was born on the Southside of Chicago and began a lifetime of success. A Chicago business owner and beloved member of the community whose passion for painting and the masterpieces he created lives on. Throughout his life, painting was a deep passion and he held several gallery showings only to be surprised. His originals were like babies, and he didn't want to part, but here people were paying some $40,000 or more for the originals. He was shocked because he had set the price so high as to not sell. A true artist of varierty and passion, the works of Ronald Fritkin live on through his son who has set up limited series and private collections for people to enjoy the art his father created.
