Ryan has been interested in art ever since he can remember. One of his earliest memories was a drawing he made of Fred Flintstone complete with large jowls and spotted fur. He was delighted to see the marks on the paper seem to create a personality. Ryan has enjoyed making art ever since.
Recently Ryan’s artwork has taken a new direction. He has begun to make abstract paintings in addition to his trademark cityscapes. These abstracts are something he has been waiting a long time to paint. After a lot of study, Ryan feels he is ready to execute the kind of abstracts that are both interesting and display the surface beauty he strives for in all of his watercolors. He considers the abstract work to be, “an ultimate excercise in design.” Look for more of Ryan’s abstracts to be on display along with his cityscapes.
Today, Ryan lives near Indianapolis, Indiana. He pursues art with a passion splitting time between commissions and personal expression. Ryan has recently been awarded a Signature Membership to the Watercolor Society of Indiana. He has exhibited with the National Watercolor Society and has a painting on display at the Indianapolis Museum 0f Art.
