About Ryan Thurmer:
Ryan Thurmer is a recent graduate of the B.F.A. program at the University of Michigan School of Art & Design. He has always been curious and inspired by nature, foreign cultures, and the world around him (everywhere may happens to be). Today, as a designer/artist/human Thurmer believes it is exceedingly necessary to center our creative focus, not only around comfort or sustainability, but also on artistic creation's true value in improving life and happiness.
