MEET THE TEAM
Mark Rengers
Mark began his creative journey working within the industrial arts and architectural fields by teaching architectural drafting and design and cabinet making. After a successful career, he decided to follow his passion of fine arts and purchased The Sewickley Frame Shop in 1999, renaming the business to the Sewickley Gallery and Frame Shop. Mark is a designer, craftsman, and proud art advocate, with a lifetime of studying and appreciating the world of art from a humble Pittsburgh perspective.
Melanie Vera
Melanie joined the team in August of 2022 to oversee and expand the gallery. She has always had a passion for the arts, attending classes in small, home-town studios as a child and eventually exhibiting works in a number of national exhibitions. Melanie holds a BFA in Fine Arts and an MA in Museum Studies from Johns Hopkins.
Karen Feola
Karen is our rock! Karen came to us in 2001 with twenty years of experience in the framing industry and an Associate's Degree in Commercial Art. Not only does she have great knowledge of design and color theory, her ability to make framing selections for every scenario has led her to be an established master framer. Karen spends her free time crafting cosplay accessories and caring for her many pets.
Todd Double
Todd joined the team in June of this year. He builds all the frames for projects and brings a creative eye to our process! Todd also uses his creative and analytical brain as an assemblage artist, where he experiments with mechanical and electrical possibilities. You can view his work here. When not creating artwork or working alongside the team, Todd loves cooking and spending time with his family.
Penny
Little Miss Penny is the pride and joy of the gallery. She loves back pets and tummy rubs 50% of the time. While she no longer lives at the gallery, you can rest assured she is living her best life at Mark's new place.
