Part of Ryan's long-running series of portraits done in charcoal and oil paint on gold washed paper. Ryan enjoys pairing the fluidity and transparency of oil paint with the substance of charcoal. "Much like the ballet of the same name, "Giselle" combines dramatic patterns with stoic expression," says Ryan. The figure wears an abstract dress of dripping circles, her hair in modernist angles. She looks intensely at the viewer, her slender frame elongated by her strong pose.

"Girls in Blue" is a portrait of two girls exploring the juxtaposition of fluidity and transparency of oil paint. In this piece, I continue to experiment with poses and their relationship to each other.

Aleida is based on a combination of graphic shapes and expression. A young girl adorned with flowers looks past the viewer. Part of Ryan's ongoing study of the female portrait with the ideals of balancing strength and fragility. He contrasted simple hard edge shapes with soft tones. The piece has striking texture and modern hues.
