The odd and inexplicable are key components in
Mark Ryden's masterpieces. His concepts are bewildering and complex yet tinged with familiarity. Dubbed as the "god-father" of Pop Surrealism by Interview Magazine, he utilizes subjects seen all around us-- from meat, blood, trees, bunnies, celebrities, to religious icons.
I first encountered a Ryden painting through watching an episode of Miami Ink. This one guy had a little girl crying blood, Rose (painting above), tattooed on him. I appreciated the artwork in a heartbeat and it piqued my curiosity as to what this artist mixes up in his palette of mysteries. I am mostly fascinated by the perplexed and his works manifest enigmatic themes that bring satisfaction to my thirsty eyes of art. His beautiful paintings impress art lovers from all over the world and create a visible impression in art's hall of fame.
