Orewiler was raised in Columbus,Ohio by craftsmen, teachers and artists. As a boy, he mainly created animals and miniature people with clay and often would draw animal, stories of Roman gladiators, Knights in armor, transformers and G.I Joe battles. His first cityscape was created when he was eight years old of New York City.

In 1993, Orewiler broke his neck (c5) in an accident that restricted him physically for several months. His goal of following his grandfathers and joining the military dramatically changed and enabled him to pursue and art career. Durnig that year, he began to build his portfolio and applied to several art schools and was awarded a scholarship to study at Columbus College of Art and Design and majored in illustration and focused in painting. After graduating, he began exhibiting his urban cityscape oil paintings in galleries throughout Chicago, Cleveland, Columbus, New York and Berlin, Germany.

In 2002, he created his first abstract series called 44 Soul Series that illustrated organic and brilliant colors inspired by the affect oil has with water. In 2005, Orewiler challenged himself to create his second abstract series that were minimalistic geometric paintings called Metro Grid Series.

For over eight years, he has worked in his Franklinton Ohio studio at 400 West Rich and continues to challenge himself to consistently produce various bodies of work. His work has been collected by numerous corporations including Hilton Hotel, AC Hotel, Nationwide, Daimler Group, Abbott Labs, Hyatt and many others (see collection list here).

Several of his primary goals are to continue evolving as an artist, create unique innovative art installations, multimedia paintings, large scale public interactive sculptures and large public murals.

For over twenty years, Orewiler has donated his art annually to numerous charities and organizations that share missions to help support individuals, animals and the opportunity to  impact communities.
