The Ohio Artist Registry (OAR) is an exciting opportunity for artists to share their work, connect with the creative community, and establish an online presence—all on a free, virtual platform! The OAR encourages artists working in all art forms, throughout Ohio and beyond, to create a profile, which allows them to better promote themselves and their work. Being listed in the OAR provides artists with new opportunities to share their work with clients, galleries, patrons, and audiences. A listing in the OAR does not confer an endorsement, approval, or verification by the Ohio Arts Council.

Bio
My artistic process involves delving into the depths of my own fears, allowing them to guide me in the creation of each piece. I explore the intricate interplay between darkness and light, fear and beauty, and vulnerability and strength. Through my art, I seek to engage viewers on a profound level, encouraging them to confront their own fears, embrace them, and find the hidden beauty within.
Ultimately, my art is a testament to the transformative power of embracing our fears and finding beauty in the midst of vulnerability. By presenting fears in a visually captivating manner, I hope to inspire viewers to question societal perceptions and judgments surrounding fear, and instead, foster empathy, understanding, and appreciation for the diverse range of emotions we all experience.
Through my artistic journey, I aspire to create a dialogue that goes beyond the canvas, inviting viewers to embrace their fears, find solace in the inherent beauty of vulnerability, and embark on their own transformative path.
Artist Statement
My art is a vibrant exploration of bold colors and textures, infused with a touch of shimmering elements. It serves as a visual representation of fears transformed into a captivating beauty. Through my work, I aim to convey the complexity of emotions and experiences that arise from confronting our deepest fears.
Using a rich palette of colors, I create visually striking compositions that demand attention and evoke strong emotions. The juxtaposition of intense hues and contrasting tones in my artwork captures the essence of fear and transforms it into a captivating spectacle. By incorporating elements of shine and luminosity, I aim to infuse hope and resilience into the very core of my creations.
