Mitch Bedke<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

About the Artist<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Mitch grew up in San Diego and was the son of an accomplished painter and artist. He was exposed to\u00a0a great many media while growing up. \u00a0After finishing up at the U of U, he worked in his father\u2019s advertising agency as a graphic designer, giving him more freedom of creativity.<\/p>\n

He\u00a0then\u00a0settled in Park City in the late 80\u2019s. Raising his two boys in this Mountain Town, they enjoy all it has to offer. In 2010, he took a glass fusing class at the Kimball Art Center and that sparked his interest and career in kiln-formed glass. He\u2019s also completed a 3-week residency at the Pilchuck Glass School in 2022. Kiln-formed glass encompasses many techniques of glass art, including fusing, slumping, painting with enamels and kiln casting.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He\u00a0focuses on\u00a0glass casting large sculptures, which is his main passion. Glass is a\u00a0spectacular\u00a0medium for color and when light shines through,\u00a0it radiates<\/em>.<\/p>\n

When Mitch is not in the studio, he is out enjoying nature\u2014exploring Utah’s vast backcountry, which provides the inspiration for his work. \u00a0In addition to kiln-formed glass, he works with stained glass, glass blowing and cold work.<\/p>\n

Other media he works in are:\u00a0carving Linocut blocks for prints,\u00a0welding, blacksmithing,\u00a0painting\u00a0and photography.<\/p>\n

One of Mitch\u2019s favorite quotes is: “Everyone is an artist; you just <\/strong>haven’t found your medium.”<\/strong><\/p>\n
