Gallery B at Bloomingfoods Near West
Bloomingfoods Staff Exhibition
October - December 2026
This quarter in Gallery B is filled with a unique variety of art made by Bloomington-based artists that share one thing in common: they’re all staff members at Bloomingfoods Co-op Market. Every piece you will see displayed on our Gallery walls has been hand-crafted by some of our talented and creative staff members, and we couldn’t be more excited about being able to help them share their art with the community.
Artists’ StatementS
Freddie King explores the concept of “monsters”, turning traditionally frightening creatures into something sweet and adorable. See more of Freddie’s work at Winnie King Comics on Facebook.
Dan Lentz, Bloomingfoods deli clerk, and Indiana University Doctor of Music in opera, now channels his powerhouse vocals into his melodic metal band, The Theos Variant. See more about The Theos Variant on Facebook, Instagram, and their website: TheTheosVariant.com
Chaz Kenny incorporates xerox, colored pencil, and time to create her unique bodies of work. Chaz will be giving away her work throughout the show.
Jordan Semprevivo creates dark fantasy work with mixed media. See more of Jordan’s work on Instagram @Jsemp_Art and DM him there if you are interested in purchasing any work.
Tosh Lewis enjoys taking old magazines and scrap cardboard to make something new and visually interesting.
Jackson Alexander enjoys using illustration to process emotions and visualize the chaos in their head through 2D digital art.
Gallery B’s Staff Exhibit artists draw from the inspiration around them to create their pieces and have learned to express themselves in all sorts of ways. We hope that you will enjoy observing the unique differences between each expression from every individual’s art as much as we enjoy the opportunity to share it with you.
If you are interested in purchase or commissions, please look at the individual artist cards in the gallery.
