Noah Snyder “Oyster IV”
Noah grew up on the idyllic Outer Banks of NC, a third-generation artist surrounded by sand and sea. His father, the iconic local artist Rob Snyder, is responsible for many of the sea life murals we enjoy here in the OBX.
Noah's style and frame of reference are truly unique. As the Outer Banks' first professional surfer, Noah is widely known for his athletic endeavors. His Surfing career has taken him all over the world into the wilds of nearly every continent. This beautiful connection can be felt in each and every piece of his artwork.
The juxtaposition of fractal wood-burning and acrylic paint mediums collide to communicate his raw yet captivating perspectives.
