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 State University, OH. He has exhibited his slipped carved ceramic work @ Wooster’s Functional Ceramics Invitational International Workshop, and he has taken many awards in printmaking and painting in nationally recognized art festivals. 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 continues to remain 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. Paradoxically, he enjoys the resistance of cutting and carving lines and shapes, always keeping an open mind to dictates of the medium and occasionally changing those parameters. “The life of an artist is a careful balance between freedom and control, between chance and planning, between memory and careful observation.” |
