Acrylic Latex on Epiphone Les Paul Guitar Since 1979, Neal Hamilton has grown into Northeast Ohio´s most-in-demand visual artist. Hamilton is a creative multi-tasker who has found phenomenal success as an Illustrator, Graphic Designer, Photographer and Painter. Hamilton began his career in the 70´s as an industrial designer with Artist Studios, where he honed his skills as a graphic designer and illustrator. The 90´s saw Neal create his own enterprise, Livewire Studios, which quickly became a leading force in graphic arts and design in Cleveland. As owner and president, Neal led the company to secure major clients, including American Greetings and Goodyear. After more than a decade in graphic design, Neal combined his passion for music with visual art, and joined the staff of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. He has been their official photographer since 1996. Highlights during his tenure with the Rock Hall include working with Aretha Franklin (photographed with golf icon Tiger Woods), documenting the opening of the John Lennon exhibition, and touring the Rock Hall with President Bill Clinton. Even with all these accomplishments, Neal has felt the tug to get back to his painting, creating from within, creating from his heart and soul. No surprise that the subject matter that has so strongly spoken to him comes from the rock and roll music he adores. For the first time in his life, Hamilton feels that all his experiences and creative passions have finally found a home
