Welcome to Fielyarts.com

Douglas R. Fiely is a diversified artist. Though educated as a printmaker and holding an MFA in the medium, he is also an avid painter. “Recently, I’ve witnessed a personal renaissance in painting – a medium in which I struggled as a student. It’s now become as natural as breathing."

Fiely has won numerous local, regional, and national awards dating back to his first juried show in 1969 when he took second place for an intaglio print @ Bowling Green University. He has exhibited his slipped carved ceramic work @ Wooster’s Functional Ceramics Invitational International Workshop. He is represented in Florida, Ohio, and Connecticut galleries and he has sold works from New York's Fifth Ave. to the mountains of Aspen, Colorado.

Operating a home studio and gallery in northwestern Ohio, Fiely remains prolific in a variety of art mediums. His style is spontaneous. He likes relying on chance accidents which open up new doors in the working process
