Kathleen Ryan settled in to "trash" art after collecting wood and various artifacts for several years and stashing them in a large old dairy barn she owns that has been transformed into her art studio, the Green Arts Collective.
She currently shares space with other artifact/collage artists and a skin-on-frame, one-of-a-kind kayak maker. The concept for the Green Arts Collective grew out of her desire to utilize materials already existing and reform them into art pieces, both functional and beautiful.
Petrified and old growth wood has remarkable grain and form that only needs polishing and simple embellishment to let the found pieces speak for themselves.
Kathleen has also exhibited her photographs for 25 years and continues to use the camera as a means to artistic expression. She also works in clay and incorporates finished ceramic elements in her sculpture.
