BEAUTY: Painting--Ryan Martin

California artist Ryan Martin has a distinctive, fascinating style. Part pop art, part comic book, part classical allegorical paintings, each piece features his angelic, sexy boys with heads full of unruly curls communing with an animal (or animals), referencing a sense of an uncontrollable natural world. These boys seem to be thriving in this wild, untamed place, able to participate because of something wild in themselves.
