From Columbus, Nancy mixed her time between Ohio and a love affair with Charleston, South Carolina. She graduated from Ohio State University, studying Fine Art, Photography, and Art Education. Nancy taught art in the public schools for a while but is widely known as a photographer. Her list of clients is far reaching, from the Who\'s Who in the area, Presidents, Governor\'s, Athlete’s, and Celebrities. For the past 5 years, while still a photographer, Nancy has returned to her college roots, and her absolute joy of PAINTING! Often, you will see the use of a photographic image within the acrylic paintings.

Suzanne Shea Gallagher
May and June 2019
Meet the artist reception will be held Monday, May 20th from 5pm to 7pm. Complimentary light tapas will be served along with our great Happy Hour which runs from 4pm to 7pm.
Suzanne Shea Gallagher's work is influenced most intensely by color, emotion, and the medium of paint. She is challenged and fed by the art of portraiture. Suzanne was raised in central Florida where the natural beauty of the state was in contrast to the artificial colors of the tourist trade. Traveling to central Ohio for her education exposed her to new colors of distinct seasons and inspiring artists of many cultures.
She came to the conclusion of independence and creative expression by owning her own studio/galleries, allowing this award winning artist the freedom to respond immediately and unrestrained throughout her daily experience. She has made her mark as one of the many proud creatives in Columbus, OH.
Suzanne's goal has always been to be a nationally involved,
socially conscious, independent Fine Artist.

Said Lawal
March and April
Please join us to see this incredible artwork by local artist Said Lawal. Said's artist reception will be on Monday, April 8th from 5-7pm. Complimentary tapas will be served along with our Happy Hour pricing.
I am Said Oladejo-Lawal. I was born in Lagos, Nigeria. I live in Columbus Ohio, USA with my wife and two children.
My father was a contractor who specialized in painting and decorating houses. He exposed me to some intricacies of design and decoration. My dad would often regale the rest of the family with stories of how I would roll in paint whenever he took me to work. My father inspired me to paint. I started drawing from an early age. I made efforts to project senses out of stick figures and tried to express distinct sense of emotions when necessary.
I studied painting in Nigeria and graduated in 1995 from the prestigious Yaba College of Technology. I also graduated with a bachelor degree in graphic design from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, United States of America in 2012.
My journey through art so far has taken me through many of the media available for use. I started with pencils, crayons, then oil and moved on to photography, watercolor, pastel and now acrylic. I always use my themes to explore the hidden part of our daily lives. I enjoy expressing emotions and feelings because they are the essence of who are, even though we mostly think they are mundane. I like music, dance and the feelings associated with them.
My colors are fauvist in outlook and my presentation is often classified as that of an impressionist artist. I like to use bright colors, to bring nostalgia and deep emotions out of anyone who encounter my paintings. I want people to walk away feeling deeply connected with each of my art pieces. I want every experience with my art work worthwhile.I am a lone painter with a studio behind my house, but I am a member of the Worthington Area Art League and have exhibited with the league a couple of times. I am also a member of the Guild of Artists & Artisans and the Ohio Art League.
I do have solo and group exhibitions throughout the year. I also participate in various art festivals within and outside Columbus, Ohio.
