As though straight out of a strange dream, Luke Ryan's surreal artworks are quite out of this world. Inspired by Golden Era children books, illustrations between the 1880s to the 1920s, his work is captivating and retro.
Based in Brisbane, Australia, Luke Ryan works in both digital and traditional mediums, having studied animation in school. Often with sketchbook in hand, he documents the daily expressions of passersby of his city.
