Clinton Reno blurs the line between nicest guy in the world and hot-tempered nut job. The dichotomy in his personality is what likely conjures art that is both light-hearted and inspiring. His work is packed with textures and ornate details. He has a grand ability to amalgamate the historical and the fictional - the technically sound and the completely absurd. Clinton grew up in the cultural metropolis of Xenia, Ohio, sketching Grizzly Adams and GI Joe characters. His love of drawing led him to the esteemed Columbus College of Art and Design, where he graduated with a BFA in Illustration in 1995. Reno has built quite a following in Columbus and beyond, hand-pulling limited edition, silk-screened posters for music events, cultural festivals, non-profit organizations and businesses. He has designed and screened posters, CD Artwork and T-Shirts for hundreds of acclaimed rock bands, including Coldplay, My Morning Jacket and Interpol. His critically appreciated work has landed him in a variety of art shows in cities across the map, including Brighton, UK, Atlanta Museum of Design, Portland, San Francisco, Cincinnati and Columbus. His work has also been featured at The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, OH, and Flatstock poster conventions inMixed media tends to refer to a work of visual art that combines various traditionally distinct visual art media. For example, a work on canvas that combines paint, ink, and collage could properly be called a "mixed media" work. When creating a painted or photographed work using mixed media it is important to choose the layers carefully and allow enough drying time between the layers to ensure the final work will have integrity. If many different media are used it is equally important to choose a sturdy foundation upon which the different layers are imposed. Many interesting effects can be achieved by using mixed media. Often, found objects are used in conjunction with traditional artist media, such as paints and graphite, to express a meaning in the everyday life. In this manner, many different elements of art become more flexible than with traditional artist media.The weird yearHours: Wed - Sun: 11 AM - 6 PM Mon & Tues: Closed
