Don Bloom is a fine artist and humorist cartoonist who works in oils, watercolor, collage, ink, and a variety of mixed media. In his Artist’s Statement he writes: “I believe in color; luminous, glowing, spectral. With all due respect, long ago black and brown left my palette. My use of color is influenced primarily by Monet, Seurat, Bonnard, Cezanne, Van Gogh and early Vlaminck. Though, I've done thousands of drawings, the experience of putting down fresh pure pigment is totally invigorating. Warm vs. cold, singing and vibrating; on a canvas rectangular, diamond shaped or round, with or without a subject, color is my 'Raison D'etre' in painting.”
Bloom received his B.F.A. in 1953 from Massachusetts College of Art, and an M.F.A. in 1957 from Instituto Allende, in San Miguel, Mexico. He also earned teaching credits at Rutgers University School of Education, Kean College, and Jersey City State College. In 1960 Bloom received the Guggenheim Fellowship for Creative Painting, and in 1964 and 1965 he received the Huntington Hartford Fellowship. less
