4. Healing through Art w/ Ashley Bennett-Stoddard

Hannah Zackney Season 1 Episode 4

Ashley Bennett-Stoddard has been deeply involved with art her entire life, as she is the daughter of the late, world-renowned sculptor Bob Bennett.  Growing up in Placerville, where the Bennett Sculpture foundry and headquarters were located, Ashley was exposed to art throughout her childhood.  She worked apprenticing with her father in the process of creating bronze sculptures.

Ashley inherited her father's artistic talent and strong feel for lines and design. She has combined this with an incredible sense of color and shape to create her own unique, unmistakable style of paintings.  In developing her style her art reflects all that is important to her.  She is inspired by God, nature, community, and philanthropy.  “It is an amazing feeling to be a part of the whole process from creation to purchase to the connection of the collector making my art their own.  I feel blessed every day to be able to create and do what I love and to be able to share my art through storytelling of my amazing legacy."
