Ryan Numair is an artist working in printmaking and stained glass. Drawn to these mediums for their meditative processes and a love for layers, he utilizes maritime and surreal imagery based upon his personal experience. Being raised along the Jersey Shore, the ocean remains an important influence to his work along with a love for music.
Transitioning from a career as a Chef, Ryan started to focus on visual arts in 2020. He studied Art & Design at the Community College of Philadelphia where he focused on illustration and poster design. There he found a new focus in printmaking through his interest in gig posters. Much of what he loved working in the kitchen was similar within the print studio.
Ryan will graduate with a BFA in Printmaking from Tyler School of Art in May 2025. He plans to continue teaching and working within the Philadelphia print and glass communities.
