Recent travels brought me to Lakewood, Ohio. I was attracted by the friendly energy of the neighborhood as well as being so close to Lake Erie. The welcoming energy of the local people and businesses expressed was most encouraging to establish an art gallery here. Art on Madison is a working studio space where most likely you will find me working on a painting in progress. Visitors are welcome to view my work at their leisure and enjoy discussing art. In the not too distant future other artists will also be invited to exhibit and cultural events will be explored. - Ivan Kende
