Exclusively on BuzznewsTV take a trip across the United States and Chicagoland Illinois to meet some of the best and most influential artists in the state and the world. From producers Phillip & Catherine Jewell as well as Martin Jon.
In this special art showcase as part of an ongoing series on BuzznewsTV, we go into the lives, artwork, and environments of artists you should be aware of.
Dale Chihuly is arguably one of the greatest artists of all times, generating a portfolio of glass art and productions larger than almost any collection of work in history. From Tacoma Washington, take a fruitful glimpse into the beautiful world of glass and Tacoma Washington's Art Museum world. If you are planning a trip there, this is a must see point of interest. On site at the museum are also facilities for those interested in the glass art program they host there. See credits at the end of the Blue Hat episode for more details.
Also featured in this episode modern aluminum chain-mail art & fashion designer Vanessa Walilko from Chicagoland. Leaving a career of dark-road topics, Vanessa decided to use her hands as an outlet for her expressions. Her "Urban Armor" is making a Buzz in our art community at large.
She recently has been getting strong support for her unique designs and craftspersonship.

She was picked by the Chicago Arts showcase fans as someone to pay attention to. We agree.
Phillip Jewell is a software engineer who holds a Masters degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Michigan. He has been an avid photographer since high school and has studied illustration and design at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA and Pratt Institute in New York, NY. Phillip designs and fabricates jewelry. He created the Blue Hat web site and photographed all of the jewelry viewed on the site.
Catherine attended Eastman School of Music and holds a Master degree in Vocal Music from the University of Michigan. She has sung professionally at Carnegie Hall, recorded with London Records and has sung with many opera companies, including Los Angeles Music Center Opera with Artistic Director Placido Domingo, San Diego and Long Beach Opera. Catherine's singing career ended when she fell down a backstage flight of stairs in an off-Broadway production and suffered a closed head injury. Several months after the accident, her husband Phillip enrolled the couple in an evening jewelry design class at Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) at Midtown Manhattan. That class was followed by a second and a third. A lover of fine jewelry, Catherine had found the ideal release for her artistic talents.
