You will find yourself smiling as soon as you see David's impressionist paintings. He is an abstract expressionist who is mainly interested in surface and prefers to work on large canvases painting fast with generous strokes. David's paintings are simple, direct, colorful, sometimes playful, and always inspiring.
 

David explains, “I’m self-taught. I like the freedom to try anything. My paintings are infused with texture and depth. I use an 8 inch palette knife and just go at it.”

​

In 2018, David sold his 1,000th painting. All paintings are original, he does not sell prints.

​

David focuses mostly on wildlife but he enjoys the challenge of any subject when creating his phenomenal art.    

​David Ryden paints in Savannah, Georgia. His daughter, Kristin, who lives in the Denver area, is David's Art Broker. She is available to assist with the sale of David’s paintings as well as commission artwork.  

The past couple of years, many of David's paintings were sold at CODA Studio Denver which was located in Cherry Creek North.
