Step into the enchanting world of artist, writer, and director Joe Bluhm as he unveiled his first solo exhibition, CUMULUS, at artspace in Downtown Shreveport. This exhibition offered a glimpse into the life and work of an artist who navigated the challenges of raising a family locally while pursuing a successful career in art and film internationally.

CUMULUS showcased Joe Bluhm's remarkable journey as a visual storyteller and his ability to create art that resonates globally while remaining rooted in North Louisiana. The exhibition featured a collection of animation projects and illustrated stories completed over the past five years, each infused with uplifting and positive themes. Visitors had the unique opportunity to explore the behind-the-scenes process of animation and storytelling, witnessing character design, storyboards, concept images, background paintings, and illustrations, among other stunning works.
