Whether you need a dent fixed or front-to-back design and customized painting, with one-of-a-kind skulls, flames, striping or whatever, Ryan is your go-to guy.
One look, and you'd figure Ryan played football. Lineman, maybe. And you'd be right. But standard-issue jock? Hardly. He also lettered in music. In fact, he won a scholarship to Loyola University, New Orleans to study the cello. How well Ryan and the Jesuit tradition might have meshed over time, we'll never know. Because he soon had an epiphany, banked his remaining scholarship money on a Harley-Davidson Softail, and headed north to the Art Institute of Atlanta.
Art school confirmed a couple of things. One, the boy had talent. And two, genetics don't lie. Ryan's grandfather on his dad's side had served as paint supervisor for the Lakewood Chevy plant for decades. His mom's dad had been the legendary master of photo retouching and restoration in the ad community long before Photoshop was born. So it was destiny fulfilled when Ryan applied his creative gifts for original design and custom painting to transforming stock motor vehicles into one-of-a-kind, raise-hell machines.
Today Ryan is one of the top airbrush artists in Georgia, hands down. For a decade, he was a master airbrush artist at an acclaimed Atlanta-area motorcycle customization shop. Then he moved on to Killer Creek, Georgia's leading Harley Davidson dealer.
Along the way, he focused more on delighting customers than winning recognition. On the few occasions where he entered contests, he won awards at various shows, such as World of Wheels and the Great American Motorcycle Show.
In 2011, Ryan's entrepreneurial instincts kicked into high gear. Yeah, he's the founder of Twin Pistons Customs, but more importantly to you and your project, he's the Master of Design & Airbrush Artist. In the first role, he's helping you envision how your bike could look within your budget. In the second role, he's working his magic to turn that dream into reality.
