“Shelter From the Storm” By Robert Ryan, Oil on Canvas textile from coast to coast

from coast to coast

I would sit on my bedroom floor and begin layering paints

mystery and fun

The pieces come together and form a mosaic

both as an artist and as a restorer

“Shelter From the Storm” By Robert Ryan, Oil on Canvas textile from coast to coast48" x 48" Orignal Artwork I, Robert Ryan grew up in Newton MA and studied art at The Art Institute of Boston. I currently live on Cape Cod where I am an abstract oil painter. My work is primarily large. done in both brush and palette knife, and all in studio. The work is personal, sometimes emotional and filled with bright color and heavy texture. I have always been drawn to artists that broke down barriers and turned objective art into subjective.
