Of all artists, mixed media creators must work with the most variation. What might be a drawback for some is the key strength of Denise Bledsoe's new exhibit, "Outliers". Bledsoe is known for using lots of materials to create one-of-a-kind figures. From sewing tiny clothes to hand-sculpting teeth, she uses everything from textiles to moss, lace and ceramics to guide her Art Dolls into being. "Outlier" is in every way an extension of her unconventional approach. Being highly anthropomorphic, it’s easy to relate to her Art Dolls. There is no denying their unsettling if amusing personalities. Through these new works, Bledsoe cleverly challenges us to consider the saliency within the uncanny. Collectors delight in her sheer originality, seeking figures with whose expressiveness they connect. "Outliers" opens November 11, 6-10 p.m. at Distinction Gallery in Downtown Escondido. There will be an opening reception with the artist, live music and drinks available for purchase by Last Spot. Stay Connected on Social Media! Facebook | Instagram | X

Lori Bell makes her debut at Golden Island Dim Sum & Asian Cuisine for the 147TH Session of Dim Sum & Jazz! Seating begins at 6p.m. and music starts from 6:30-8:30 p.m. Call (858) 578-8800 for reservations! About Lori Bell | Brooklyn native Lori Bell is a flutist and composer of admirable depth and broad musical sympathies. A resident of San Diego, she has contributed to the development of higher standards of performance while earning acclaim from both peers and critics for her artistry on stage and in recordings. Bell plays with confidence and taste, with a proclivity toward the more subtle means of emotional expression. Her playing inherently has a many-layered depth that reveals a more meaningful art. She renders ballads with exceptional sensitivity while bringing wonderful nuances to swing and be-bop, which she plays with power, agility and a natural élan. Her phrasing, evocative of birds, shows the strong influence of Eric Dolphy, yet is rendered with such purity of tone and range of timbre that it is clearly of a different ornithology. Lori Bell is a three time Global Music Award recipient recognized for her recordings, compositions, and arrangements. Like Dim Sum & Jazz? Check out the rest of the schedule here!
