Artist: Bob Tanner

Bob Tanner’s life journey has been a continuing experience of art
in both study and creation. His artistic talents range from metal sculpture
and architecture to his passioned medium—oil painting. He has studied
under Robert Chadeayne, Charles Csuri and Erwin Frey while a student at
Ohio State University. His diverse and evolving art interest span 43 years
as he considers himself the ever learning art student.
Now retired, Bob’s entire professional career was focused on art.
His early days as an illustrator for North American Aviation provided
experience with technical and commercial art. His 35 years with Battelle
Memorial Institute further developed his talents working as a graphic
designer, illustrator and Art Director. Upon retirement he was responsible
for the creative and production materials produced by Battelle in
pursuit of Government and Industrial contracts. During his tenure with
Battelle he was the recipient of numerous awards and recognitions for
outstanding illustrations, graphics and publications.
Today many of his oil paintings are inspired by the personal
experience of travel throughout the country. Ohio does include some of
Bob’s favorite landscape destinations. His sketch book and paints close at
hand, he’s always ready to capture those impressionistic vistas.
Bob is a member of the Ohio Plein Air Society and has participated
in many juried art shows throughout Central Ohio. His work has been
displayed locally at the Shumaker Gallery, Capital University as well
as the prestigious Keny Gallery in German Village. Also his work was
shown at the Springfield Museum of Art, Springfield, Ohio.
