I am a graduate of The Art Academy of Cincinnati. Since 1993 I have owned and operated Olmes Studio and Framing in Newtown Ohio.
I have worked most exclusively with the figure and floral or still life imagery. More recently I find myself quite drawn to warm vivid colors. Usually my images are those items which are part of my everyday life. It could be that I paint the apple to be eaten for lunch, a family treasure or a flower picked from my garden that morning.
I believe art painted from the artist intimate knowledge of the subject has a personal message that is more readily felt by the viewer.
