about
Robert Mazurek is a central Ohio artist working in oil painting, drawing,
and photography. The subjects consist of flowers, trees, landscapes,
and more. The guiding principle is that the image should be one that
brings happiness and a good way to start the day.
Robert started working in photography back in the days of darkrooms
and film, working for a wedding photographer. This experience was
eventually complimented with formal lessons in drawing and painting.
The overall result was the amalgamation of painting and photography,
with one discipline feeding into the other.
Sometimes, it is not clear at first whether one of Robert’s pieces is coming
from painting or photography.
Robert has taken foundation level art classes in drawing and painting at
the Columbus College of Art and Design, the Columbus Cultural Arts
Center, the McConnel Arts center, and a local arts college in Beauvais France.
This experience was further enhanced through Robert’s career in R&D for
a global consumer products company that offered the opportunity to live
near Paris and its thriving arts scene, and to visit major museums in cities
around the world.
