Ryan Dougherty Paper & Paint


Signs of wonder, a local language and silent message, impossible to authentically duplicate, unintentional poems on glass and metal, a codebook to the city’s secrets, something intimate and essential, to know a city, study it’s signs, glamorous developments of illumination and technology, telling the continuing story of a city, the chatter of the streets, what is said is what isn’t scarily more important than the signs. (run on sentences and spelling are at the artists discretion)

Paper and Paint.
My current work combines antique paper and acrylic to create an illusion of depth & texture. My focus is urban landscape and nostalgic inspired imagery that transports the viewer to a simpler time.
