Artist: Orion Wertz | Location: Columbus, GA
Columbus, GA
I grew up in Pittsburgh and have lived in Illinois and New York before moving to Georgia in 2003. My artwork work is in the collections of the High Museum of Art and the Columbus Museum, as well as numerous private collections. Currently I am a Professor of Art at Columbus State University in Columbus, Georgia. My Masters of Fine Arts in Painting was conferred by the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana and my Bachelors of Fine Arts was received at Indiana University of Pennsylvania.
Drawing and painting are my media of choice. My work is narrative in nature, reflecting my literary and historical interests. I am interested in combining visual mythologies of the past with contemporary, invented mythologies of my own.
