Gryphan is an artist living in Des Moines, Iowa whose primary area of interest lies with acrylic painting which ranges from abstract to photorealism, and he is skilled in creating images of a variety of subjects. As a child, Gryphan took many art classes in school and was involved in many school-based art exhibits. While he learned the basics and foundations of art and creativity in school, Gryphan also is innately artistic and is a self-taught painter who enjoys learning and honing newly discovered techniques as well as creating his own.
Gryphan describes his work as: “an emotional experience, since I put a lot of my emotional expression and symbolism into my work.” Gryphan places value in the spirituality, passion, and emotional experience which art creates for the observer as well as the artist, and hopes that each piece is able to tell a story that others are able to relate themselves to.
