About Me…

I love life and all the simple, hidden objects of beauty that comprise it…

As far back as my memories take me I have always marveled at the beauty of nature and objects. I found myself then, as I still do today, focusing on the shapes and forms within everything around me. I became fascinated by the hidden beauty in the details unnoticed by most but visible to all.

Art has always energized and inspired me. At a very young age I began drawing, which naturally evolved into painting, crafting, sculpting, and graphic design, all of which led me to an exploding passion for photography. It is in photography that I have found the most effective medium to capture those elements that have fascinated me my entire life.

As a photographer, I wish to share my visions of beauty, those hidden elements that might otherwise be overlooked, and the excitement of discovery with you, my audience. It is my hope that you might see something in my work that will evoke a childhood memory, a feeling of contentment, perhaps a subtle reminder of heartache but mostly, the simple promise of love.

Artist Reception Saturday May 14th 1-4PM…

Trial Collection: Photographs & Mixed Media Work by Kenton Bradley

Madison native, Kenton Bradley, found his niche in producing imagery at MCHS, constantly photographing and creating layouts that only intensified his thirst for creation. This eventually led Kenton to Indiana State University where he spent a semester abroad in Italy studying fresco painting and photography at the University of Macarata, and back to the states where he obtained a Bachelors degree in Photography.

Kenton, now an Indianapolis resident, has displayed his works around Terre Haute and Indianapolis, Indiana and Bellingham, Washington. The pieces of his work that gained notoriety spawned a movement in Terre Haute called “Multism”, where artwork has to be produced out of any found object, any artistic media, and has to contain multiple recycled items. At this time Kenton had a solo show at the Bare-Montgomery Art Gallery atIndiana State University, where a distinguished member of the faculty gave the movement a fitting nickname of the “trash can school of art” due to Kentons dumpster diving and foraging for materials.

Kenton is currently a freelance photographer & a graphic designer for Etching Industries in Indianapolis. Kenton is also continually producing photographs with his Holga camera and his Pentax ist-D, and working on creating artwork with the simple message of being “green”. A consistent theme arises throughout Kentons works: Frugality, repurposing material, and the a surreal and sometimes abstracted view of the world around us.

If you would like to purchase any piece of artwork, please contact Kenton directly at kentonb@gmail.com include the Title of the Piece you would like to purchase and a shipping address.
