#40: Pieper Bloomquist - Contemporary Scandinavian Folk Art, Growing Up in a Town of 44 People, Cataloguing Color Palettes, “Perfect Practice”, and More
14 Aug 2024
Pieper Bloomquist is a contemporary folk artist based in Grand Forks, North Dakota. She studied Swedish Dalmålning and Bonadsmålning, and has been painting in traditional Scandinavian styles of folk art since 1993. Pieper enjoys utilizing elements from folk art traditions to tell modern stories, incorporating the floral forms, borders, layout and perspective of the past to depict scenes that — while personal to her — portray universal human experiences and daily activities of growing up in the upper Midwest.
