Rooted in journey and narrative, Ryan’s practice thrives on stimulus – expeditions that demand preparation, attention, and immersion. Unleashed charts a bold arc across the Celtic fringes, from the stormy coasts of Brittany to Ireland’s ancient shorelines, and finally, home to Argyll. Along the way, friendships are rekindled, artistic challenges accepted, and new terrain embraced with characteristic vigour.
Whether sketching against Atlantic winds or reflecting on maritime histories, Ryan brings a deeply personal, painterly lens to landscapes shaped by time and tide. Unleashed is a testament to Ryan’s enduring relationship with place, community, and the ever-inspiring edges of land and sea.
