Vatican Light- Italy by Ryan Fox
Based on a B&W photograph Ryan used complimentary colors in the piece. "Rays of light" were created by scrubbing off color with an oil brush- a get it right the first time or ruin the painting moment. To purchase this piece or see more of Ryan's work, click the image and visit Ryan's Etsy Shop.
Rainbow of Fruit Flavors- London by Ryan Fox
Painted on YUPO, Ryan started with a colorful abstract background then carefully painted architecture on top. Since the surface is plastic it can take hours, even days, to dry before you can glaze. To purchase this piece or see more of Ryan's work, click the image and visit Ryan's Etsy Shop.
Quechua Mother- Peru by Ryan Fox
Painted by charging color into other colors and intentional water blossoms. Dropping water into wet colors creates blossoms. Done unintentionally, this is a quick way to ruin a painting. I painted this section-by-section and intentionally blossomed every area. Blossoms create a marble effect when done properly.

Santiago Reflection- Chile by Ryan Fox
Section by section painting using complimentary colors. All colors were created by charging. "Charging" is the technique of dropping a color into an already wet color. This produces a completely different effect than mixing colors on palette. Several spots of green counteract the orange/blue dominance and create movement in the painting.

Prayer Wheels- Nepal by Ryan Fox
Poured watercolor painting using only three colors. No color is applied to paper with brush- it is literally poured onto surface. Hard lines are formed by masking fluid. Colors are blended using water and gravity. To purchase this piece or see more of Ryan's work, click the image and visit Ryan's Etsy Shop.
