Ryan Obermeyer Musical artist

Ryan Obermeyer (born February 13, 1981 in Dallas, Texas) is an internationally acclaimed American artist who works in photography, drawing, sculpting, and painting. He is most widely recognized for his surreal digital photographs that have often appeared on album packaging for recording artists, book jackets, and ad campaigns. Obermeyer practices a unique style of digital photography by collaging and "painting" parts of many of his photographs into one seamless amalgam. While most photographers are concerned with obtaining a perfect shot, Obermeyer is focused on post-production. By digitally cutting and manipulating even single strands of hair or folds in fabric, he is not capturing but creating. This process leads to a fluid classification of his work between photography and digital illustration. He is also an accomplished painter and sculptor.He draws freely from many influences including classic children's literature, mythology, biological processes, aquatic life, music, and film. Obermeyer's pieces display a precise attention to detail and an unrestrained affinity for fantasy and surrealism.
