A Break from Reality
The Franklin County Convention Facilities Authority today owns the largest contemporary collection of local art in central Ohio. All of the pieces are on display in the Greater Columbus Convention Center, the Hilton Columbus Downtown and the three Convention Center parking garages. The collection is the result of a communitywide call for art, overseen by a committee of community members and implemented by collection curators James and Michael Reese of Reese Brothers Productions. The artists represent the diversity of the Columbus community, cutting across age, gender and race.

Statement: The idea is to utilize color and whim. We draw from a youthful place of imagination and escapism, which in return, offers the public a lush tapestry in what is often a dull, concrete space. May the landscape initiate a brief moment of nostalgia or longing for childhood. This illustration with whimsical creatures and pastel colors is simply a gift of the imagination our fantasia for you to enjoy.
