A Surrealist Point of View: Interview with Chuck E. Bloom

Thank you, I am very happy to do this interview. I grew up in the small farm town of Bloomdale in what used to be called the Black Swamp, before it was drained to create farmland in northwest Ohio. I received a scholarship to Mount Union College in Alliance, Ohio where I received B.A. degrees in both psychology and painting (with honors in painting). My art education at Mount Union was very traditional and rigorous. From there I went onto the MFA program at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio continuing my concentration in painting and adding art history to the mix.
