Ryan: Contemporary Abstract Oil Painting
By Alysha Grace Marko
Located in New York, NY
"Ryan" is a contemporary figurative oil painting completed in the summer of 2022, featuring a man in front of an abstract background. The contrast between the extreme abstraction of the background and the figurative foreground makes for a striking and energetic piece.
The model of the piece is Ryan, a close friend of the painter. On one summer night after a few glasses of wine, Alysha decided to paint Ryan in her studio. "I love painting from life, it translates so much better for me," said the artist.

About the Artist:
"Growing up in England during the 80s, the influence and love of American sub cultures through TV, and being surrounded by large non-spaces of US air bases around East Anglia, gave me a slightly odd and romantic view of America.
I finished the Masters Degree bronze-casting course at the Royal College of Art in 1999 and have pursued my passion for Art ever since. I have built up a body of work that follows the theme of a journey into abstraction, inspired by Robert Smithson, Donald Judd, Fiona Banner, Cornelia Parker...
