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.
For more information, contact Kathy Signorino, artist programs director, at kathy.signorino@oac.ohio.gov or 614-728-6140.

Bio
I would rather create than sleep. Unfortunately I am human, and don’t have many hours in the day but when I do, I am working on an original acrylic painting, cross stitch or embroidery, and trying to learn how to crotchet. I am an artist based out of east Columbus near Whitehall, where I create my art as well as work full-time as a Peer Recovery Supporter supporting others in early addiction recovery and attempting to bring creative coping skills to my clients and the recovery community. I was lucky enough to be chosen as a GCAC Artist grant winner for 2023, and have been working on larger pieces and attempting to learn new skills. I have done a number of smaller banners and painting for Lighthouse Behavioral Health Solutions, as well as creating a BLM mural for Big Fun Toy Shop in 2019. I have participated as a vendor at SoHud Art and Vintage Market, and have recently been accepted to participate in the art exhibition for the Day of the Dead Festival at the Green Lawn Mausoleum on October 7th. I am currently open for commissions, so just shoot me a message if you are interested!
