It's Bloony! Wait, Who is Bloony?
Bloony? What is Bloony? Bloony is a character that I created. He's the signature element in all of my work. I wanted to have a character with an adventurous element. I created Bloony to create a relationship between the viewer and my work. Bloony and his balloon will make you think. You’ll start to wonder “What is important between the artist and this piece? What's going through Bloony's mind? Does the mood of the painting and the color of Bloony's balloon mean anything?” I'll place hints or let the art pieces be deciphered by others to make sense of Bloony’s overall purpose. “But wait, does he serve another meaningful purpose or is he just sort of there?” He serves a purpose. Stories can be told through each piece. As much as he is seen as a drifter in my work, he’s also the ultimate guide.
I guess you can say that I get to live vicariously through the scenes that I put Bloony in. I also get to relive those scenes, since many of my paintings will and do have actual life events behind them. Bloony is a wanderer, an adventurous cool soul. He felt alone in the world. He felt a bit helpless. He felt that he wouldn't amount to much in life. He decided to grab his balloon and float off on a journey full of adventure and wonder. I believe we all have a drifters soul as I depict Bloony to be in my work, although many stay in one place.
Now that you know Bloony, where's he off to next? My plan is to do all sorts of projects and place him in each art piece, whether it's a painting, drawing, 3d build, etc. All of my Bloony projects will be tagged with a unique hologram. The hologram is the official Bloony stamp of authenticity. Each hologram is numbered from #0001 with plans to max out my work at #9999 pieces. Will I create that many pieces? I'm going to try. Bloony will be put into real life events, far fetched art, abstracts, 3D works and who knows what else to come... Well I do, but for you, I hope that you keep checking back to find out! Thanks for checking out my art. I hope that if anything, you can appreciate the idea of Bloony and maybe one day he'll be floating across your walls.
