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.

Artist Statement
My artistic exploration delves into the realms of nostalgia and abstraction, utilizing mixed media, collage, vibrant color, intricate patterns, and evocative imagery. Through this fusion, I aim to craft narratives that transcend the surface, inviting viewers to delve into layers of meaning and emotion, where memories intertwine with abstract forms, creating a dynamic interplay that resonates with the essence of the human experience.
