Painting - Acrylics


   Deidre Ryan was based in Queensland for many decades and established her career by combining the surprising visual variation of abstract impressionism as a background to her exquisite paintings of Australian birds. She achieves striking results by using different techniques.

In latter years she and her husband have travelled extensively across Europe and in parts of Asia including Bhutan. Her passion remains Australian bird life and she draws from observation capturing their grace and individuality. She has had solo exhibitions in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and across Queensland and her paintings have been collected widely both in Australia and overseas.


"These skilled abstracts are an emotional response that emerge from creative observation. Each an ethereal variation on nature that somehow invites the actual vision of real-life birds to fly majestically across... into... through dreamscape".
