Sergey Ryzhov
Sergey Ryzhov creates his moody and atmospheric paintings digitally using Photoshop CS4, only occasionally making sketches and studies in pencil. At first glance I assumed his work was hand painted, and love the effects he can get using digital means alone. They say each picture tells a story, and my mind boggles at what the stories behind these strange images could be.

Artist Statement
In a culture in which people are easily lured by the appeal of status-enhancing symbols, I find beauty in derelict cars and unkempt landscapes. I have always been interested in painting vehicles and scenes that have defined the evolution of the American landscape.
I commemorate commercial vehicles inundated with graffiti and rust, working vehicles, and well-traveled recreational vehicles. I find that there is so much character in old delivery trucks and vans — especially when covered with graffiti — and in the old RVs parked off a main road. Removing them from their everyday context gives them portrait-like importance. I paint with devoted attention to every imperfection and sign of age.
