30 x 43in (76 x  x 104cm) - oil on canvas - done in 2008

 

Pour and flow paintings evolved over many years from florals to landscape to more abstract expression. Lopez was moved by the impressions he created but stymied by the limitations of the canvas' flat surface. He discovered a new way of working with the pour and flow technique while on a trip to Santa Fe, N.M., where he happened upon the work of an artist who taught him to manipulate the canvas in unexpected ways. He spent the next few months learning the method of lifting, folding and waving the canvas, applying layer upon layer of color, to perfect his visions with dizzying results. Pour and flow is a method of painting in which paint is poured onto the canvas and gravity helps create images without the use of a single paintbrush.

His present pour and flow work was influenced by Paul Jenkins, a master pour and flow painter living in Paris, France. 

Ryan says "I choose the title of each piece at the end of creation or the name unfolds during the process of creation. Generally, I choose not to title what I see in my own mind. I prefer to choose an adjective or verb which exemplifies the energy of the piece. That way I do not identify the piece as I see it but rather leave it up to the observer to make that decision. I have always liked the look of watercolor and now I have been able to create that look on canvas. In 2008 I moved to South East Asia to pursue more (oriental design) in creation. Pieces like Butterfly and Oriental Garden were the beginnings of experimental paintings of an oriental theme".

However my love of nature and art, began and evolved from the beauty of the Mexico and South West deserts of America. "My work tends to mimic nature," he said. Jenkin's work is more abstract than mine, and I enjoy mimicking nature. Lopez rediscovered his passion for creating when he began experimenting with the pour and flow technique in the late 1990’s.

Working without thinking, in something of a trance-like state of being completely "present" in the moment, Lopez has created a body of work filled with ethereal images that, with few exceptions, seem to depict some of nature's most breathtaking scenes. With paintings bearing titles such as "Windstorm," "Slickrock" and "Fire and Ice," Lopez occasionally begins with an idea of what he wants to create. The unpredictable nature of paint pulled by gravity, however, often results in an entirely unexpected image. It is not uncommon for a single painting to be finished only after more than 20 layers of paint have been applied. With a drying period between applications, the pieces often take days from start to finish. "The canvas speaks back to me when I'm working," Lopez said. "The images depend on tood. The process of creating is where the passion is." This is for all the marbles; this time it's for passion," Lopez said. "I want to release myself from this tension and go into the freedom of pure creativity. I don't want to wait. I want to do it while I'm young."

Good Quality for what you pay
Color: Golden Yellow, Size: 2' x 6' (Double Pelt)
I 24/7 'researched the heck out of Sheepskin Blk Fri DEALS, this was the best for the money. I had a feeling this Long-Hair version of Sheepskin rug /piece was possibly not quite the same as stuff I bought in the early '90s...from an ACTUAL Sheep Farm -not the curly densely-packed Lambskin, more the '70's 'Shag-Rug' version. Still- I LIKE IT. It's very WARM & seems to be made well even tho the backing is a trimmed down version of true leather. I use it as a large pad under my easy chair. I got the YELLOW, worried the dye might affect the function but no- it did not and tbh- the Yellow is kind of awesome! A soft glowy SUNNY yellow good to blast you out of Winter DULL! I'm NOT going to attempt to wash this. Brush it- yes. I will get it Dry-cleaned when needed. I DO recommend this Sheepskin.

Hard to say if genuine or faux.
Color: Light Brown, Size: 2' x 3' (Single Pelt), Color: Light Brown, Size: 2' x 3' (Single Pelt)
I was really debating between two brands and decided to get this one since it had more good sounding reviews. I received it and now I'm not 100% sure if this is REAL sheep or just a really well done Faux. I trimmed a few pieces from this rug and my Faux one I got from ROSS and they both bubbled up exactly the same way when burned...But the rug I got from Ross is so much softer and smoother, but the backing is different in the Ross one and definitely a cotton material compared to this Amazon one which is slightly stiff but more suede looking. I also felt a real sheep rug earlier this week (and was what made me interested in buying one—but I wasn't interested in the price tag of the one from the store I found. However, the one at the store even had a tag on the corner stating "Genuine New Zealand Sheep Skin"). I just wish this had a stamp or tag somewhere or something on the piece stating it's "Genuine" like most authentic leather/fur goods have. It is fluffy and soft—but so is my faux rug from ROSS. This piece does have those curls/coils that make it seem more dense and like an actual sheep's coat. It might just be a REALLY low quality product that they're trying to market in an enticing manner. Even the backing looks like cheap cardboard like someone else stated. Either way, most likely keeping it since the price was alot less than the cost of the one I found at the store and I like the creamy beige color I ordered because it gives a more natural look than the stark white fur I originally found. Regardless, it's for my Dog, so I'm not too bothered and if it gets messed up and mangled it won't be such a big deal. Odor in the one I got just smelled like a sheep that's been in the sun all day and dissipated pretty quickly/got covered up once I sprayed it with my dog's fragrance/refresh spray. Creased up from the packaging but nothing a little brushing and shaking couldn't fix. I hope this helped inform you before you purchased. PS: They did send samples of a "Faux" Fur AND "Real" Fur which I thought was kind of neat but the sample coulda been from an actual good quality real fur compared to what they sent...Who knows?

Very nice quality, this is the perfect size. It is a tiny bit yellow, but still looks really nice. It's lovely to be able to set my feet onto something so soft, especially in the morning.

Furnished Apartment? Quality!! Instant upgrade
Size: 2'6" x 6'6", Color: Ivory White, Size: 2'6" x 6'6", Color: Ivory White
I was concerned about ordering sheepskin online. So many scams & faux fur. And Wow! Holy Moly - I’m so impressed. I’m from Hudson Valley NY - lots of sheep farmers - I know fur! These are fabulous! Bigger than the others online Thick and full piles and beyond soft These are beautiful - I’ve now ordered 3 If you’re a renter and furniture came with the rental - these can transform your space! The colors are beautiful and appear very natural PS: Do not expect bleached white color And you really wouldn’t want it I have allergies and chemical reactions These are beautiful, supple and natural They come with a linen bag, cleaning brush and care instructions I’m so pleasantly surprised and maybe a bit obsessed with the quality of the pieces that arrived. You won’t regret this one! I’ve ordered the white - over 6ft long draping my love seat. The brown - for two dining chairs that I easily move around. The photos explain - enjoy.
