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.

Artist Statement

  I work primarily in Oil, Acrylic for murals and mixed media. Utilizing the artistic process and subject matter as a means of recovery. I am especially grateful for nature and its endless supply of awe and inspiration. Art is a way I experience each moment while practicing healthier patterns and using tools to interact with the world and myself with more kindness and compassion.
