Adam Gayer is a Fort Wayne-based painter who’s been creating art professionally for over 20 years. His training began in early childhood, with the guidance of his father, Kelly, and Aleš and Renata Pancner, at Pancner’s Art School.


Over the years, Adam has participated in local, regional, and national art shows and gallery exhibitions. He’s received many awards and accolades, including a National Honor at Carnegie Hall in NYC. Adam has created dozens of commissioned works for private art collections, both locally and throughout the world. His art has taken him to many countries and cultures, including parts of Italy, throughout the Middle East, and across Asia, experiences that have continued to influence and enrich his work.

Adam most often paints with oil paint, but also enjoys using watercolor, oil pastel, and mixed-media methods.

In addition, Adam works full time as a psychotherapist at Parkview and in private practice, while continuing to pursue his art on the side. He loves living downtown and being an active part of the Fort Wayne community.

Adam has a private art studio located at the newly renovated 1905 Parlor Salon, in the heart of DTFW, sharing space alongside other creative and accomplished professionals. Keep a look out for ongoing social events at the Parlor. Separately, you may contact Adam personally to schedule a studio tour and view available works. He looks forward to connecting with you!
