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
Donald LC Groves is a professional opera and musical theater singer formerly based in New York City and now living in Ohio. He has been lucky enough to travel the country performing and taking pictures. His portfolio showcases stunning imagery from the deserts of New Mexico to the bustling streets of New York City and everything in between. Donald seeks to capture the beauty of both nature and man-made structures through his lens.
I was lucky enough to be exposed to wonderful photography and art from an early age due to my family’s background in the field. Both my grandfather and father were/are professional photographers, which helped shape my photographic eye and artistic vision. My rich artistic life through singing and performing, along with my exposure to the world of art and photography, has resulted in a broad aesthetic upbringing. This, combined with my unique perspective, has culminated in a rich and varied portfolio of images.
