Ryan Rhodes – Bold Color and Surreal Energy
Northern California artist Ryan Rhodes, also known as Artificer Studio, has been painting large-scale murals since 2000 and working full-time as a professional artist since 2007. His work, created in oil, acrylic, spray paint, and airbrush, bursts with bright contrasts and surreal, mysterious themes. Ryan has painted across the U.S. for clients like Redbull, The Crocker Art Museum, the Sacramento Kings, and ABC10, as well as countless small businesses. Now based in Auburn, he brings his dynamic vision to both murals and studio paintings, contributing bold energy to the local art scene.

This mural shows how we often reflect and shine onto others in the community and the importance of growing together in a healthy way through cultivating potted plants and working towards a common goal.
“Something for Everyone” Auburn Ca. This is part of my mural with @leadershipauburn and @ard_auburnca at Recreation Park. This was a really fun project involving the community of Auburn. Thank you to everyone who helped and encouraged me while working on it!

Insane footage/edit documentation of this mural by @aslyfilm this edit is nuts! You should hire him! working on this with the wildly talented @maxehrman and @pawnpaint was a pleasure and somehow feels like months ago. Life comes at you fast, so get with some creative friends and make some memories!
