One Fantastic Week

Ryan Friant has been drawing and doodling ever since he could hold a pencil. He was inspired by fantasy art, mythology and fairytales, Brian Froud and his work with Jim Henson on films like The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth, and stop-motion animation. When he started hand-making polymer clay art dolls and pulling in all of these early influences that have stuck with him, he realized that he could make his sketches come to life, feel more like a complete reality than he ever could with two-dimensional art.
