This exhibit will showcase Bledsoe's most current mixed media sculptures and art figures. His her creations are best described as playful and whimsical. Each character and creature has it's own story to tell. The Opening Reception will be held on Saturday\, May 9\, 2015 from 6-10pm with Live Music. Bledsoe will be in attendance at the Opening Reception to meet\, greet\, and answer questions. Local artists within the ArtHatch building will have their studios open to the public as well. Complimentary Wine\, and Stone Beer will be severed to guests. \n\n\n\n"I've been involved in art with one media or another since I was a child. Although I spent many hours sketching\, drawing with pen and ink\, and painting with acrylics and oils\, my first love has always been sculpting and mixed media. I currently use both ceramic and oil based clays. It is the three-dimensional and textural qualities achievable through sculpture that satisfies me creatively. I feel that being able to experience a piece by holding it in one's hand is more fulfilling. In the case of my figurative pieces\, it becomes an interaction with 'eye contact'. My work can be found in galleries both internationally and across the US and has been shown in art publications and was the cover feature for the arts and entertainment magazine Pasatiempo. It is also in the private collections of several notable celebrities."
