Hi, I'm Ryland All, my pronouns are she/her. I am an Artist/Teacher from Asheville, NC.

About Me

I enjoy working with a variety of mediums, I tend to enjoy working traditionally with a pencil or pen. I am a classically trained artist but I can and do work digitally. I didn't receive or have access to any formal art training until college. I studied at Agnes Scott Liberal Art's college in Decatur, GA and graduated with an BA in Studio Art with an Asian Studies focus. 

My work right now consists of diverse animated characters in fictitious scenarios to create dialogues about diversity and natural intelligence of animals as compared to human beings. I imbue my figures with both animal and human aspects so they do not comfortably exist in either defined category. In my pieces the world or environment plays a roll in this dialogue and aids in separating my characters from any definitive category. I think there is something to be said about learning from animals and how smart they actually are. I try to reflect this in my work.
