Meet the Artists: Featured Artist JIM BLOOM:
Featuring new Mixed Media Paintings and Original Drawings by Philadelphia Artist Jim Bloom. From Allentown, Pennsylvania, Jim Bloom’s portraits and scenes often evoke still shots loaded with information about the subjects depicted and the artist himself, telling stories with biting wit and irony that capture the eye and quickly convey a message or feeling that leaves a lasting impact on the viewer.
In his mixed media paintings and drawings, Bloom responds to his observations of popular culture with simultaneously raw and undeniably demanding compositions. Jim Bloom’s work is currently shown exclusively at The SHED Contemporary
Enjoy the Classic Rock of MICHAEL JAMES. His passion for rock music evolved early on, leading him to singing roles with multiple bands touring Boston and New York by the age of 18, and eventually, throughout the East Coast.
20 years later, Michael attended the Berkley College of Music in Boston to gain a deeper understanding of music theory. Notable instructors included Armard Quallintine and Mary Healy (also the voice coach for singer and front man Steven Tyler for the rock-band “Aerosmith”)and eventually became a teacher assistant under his mentors.
Having moved to California after leaving Berkley, Michael now teaches, as well as performs his music solo. Michael is passionate to give back to the community and strives to create a better world for present and future generations.
