The artist, Richard Ryder, developed an affinity towards art at an early age where he took every opportunity to incorporate art into his assignments. During his early years, while attending elementary school, he would doodle on the blank side of envelopes or any discarded paper. This drove his passion to pursue taking studio art courses while in high school & continued that pursuit through to four-year formal art education. As an artist that is heavily influenced by graphic design, Art Deco, and traditional animation, Richard aims to capture the beauty in whichever subject he is painting. He focuses on ways to exploit the basic elements of art to create a satisfying and cohesive design. As an artist, Richard seeks to improve and challenge himself. He states that “With the internet, I am constantly inspired by art either in the fine art or commercial field. It is this exposure that leads me to constantly explore different mediums and styles."

great piece, nice strokes, exactly as described. Very high quality painting. Ryan. Weston, MA. Sat Feb 24 2024

This vibrant and stylish photograph captures two women wearing brightly-colored skiwear standing in the foreground of a group of people attending a party in Snowmass Village, Pitkin County, Colorado, in April 1968. The scene showcases the sophisticated social gatherings that defined America's newest and most ambitious ski resort development, where the promise of European-style Alpine luxury was being realized in the dramatic Colorado Rockies just months after Snowmass's spectacular opening season. This captivating image embodies the pioneering spirit and glamorous social culture that characterized Snowmass during its inaugural years as America's most complete winter resort destination. The photograph captures the community during its remarkable transformation from pastoral Brush Creek Valley ranches into the country's largest and most ambitious ski village, designed to emulate the legendary Alpine resorts of Europe while establishing a distinctly American interpretation of mountain luxury. The scene represents the fulfillment of developer Bill Janss's extraordinary vision to create a ski resort that would rival Vail and any other destination in the world, where international sophistication met Colorado's rugged natural beauty in an unprecedented mountain community that attracted celebrities, socialites, and ski enthusiasts seeking the ultimate combination of world-class terrain, architectural innovation, and refined hospitality. This image perfectly captures the optimistic energy and social dynamism of Snowmass's early years, when the resort was setting new standards for mountain living and establishing itself as a premier destination for America's emerging ski elite.

His career spans almost 20 years, and he's been published in esteemed magazines and worked with many Fortune 500 companies such as Apple, Burberry, Esquire Magazine, The New Yorker, W Magazine, and Yamaha. He shoots with a variety of cameras but prefers his Leica. "My photography is inspired by people, places, and things. I was trained as a photojournalist so I find inspiration everywhere - from my travels abroad to my own backyard. My biggest source of inspiration is light, especially the way it can dramatically change a scene. I love the glow of morning light through the fog, the graphic shadows of noon light, the light of an overcast day, and the dramatic rose-colored light at sunset. I am fascinated by people and their stories - from celebrities and people overcoming a life-changing obstacle to simple loving moments between a parent and their child. There is so much beauty in everyday life. I meet so many people from drastically different backgrounds and all of them inspire me to tell their stories with photography. I am also drawn to nature, from vast open landscapes to intricate details and patterns. The experience of really noticing the world around me is the greatest inspiration of all."
