About Me

APOLLO - Greek mythology - The god of prophecy, music, medicine, and poetry, sometimes identified with the sun.NOVA - A star that ejects some of its material in the form of a cloud and become more luminous in the process.APOLLONOVA is a collective of professional artists working mainly in the Akron, Ohio area. We came together to provide inspiration and support for ourselves and other artists. The name comes from two linked ideas. Apollo, the Greek god of inspiration and the sun, was also considered a patron of the arts. A nova is a star that, while dying and spinning off its matter into space, glows brightly and creates new and beautiful things. We create art, hurling it out into the world, leaving beauty in its wake, ever moving onward to the next idea or project. We also know that inspiration doesn't always come on its own, sometimes you have to look to your friends, or the gods, or the sky for that little glimmering light.We are ever-expanding and hope to continue motivating one another and collaborating in art and ideas.
