Ryden's work combines a saccharine cartoon-like sensibility - much like the doe-eyed Margaret Keane creatures of the 1960s - with a detailed fullness and a creepy combination of numerology, little girls, meat, Catholic and Buddhist symbolism, and carnivalesque Americana. His work ranges from large highly-polished oil paintings to small black-and-white works on paper. Like modern illustrators Sir John Tenniel and Edward Gorey and game designer American McGee, Ryden is influenced by the fantastic art of Alice in Wonderland and early Renaissance landscapes. Margaret Keane is an American artist. ...

Trivia - In high school Ryden and designer Brian Jackson offset the cost of needed art supplies by painting signs and school murals.

- Ryden has provided artwork for over ten albums released on the Sympathy for the Record Industry label. Several of the pieces were commissioned works.
