Welcome to The Art of Life Blending

Inspired by the Lifetime Work of World Renown Environmental Artist Hal Stowers

HAL STOWERS holds a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture from the University of Florida, 1967, and a Masters Degree in Landscape Architecture from the University of California at Berkeley, 1969. Home again, he accepted a position with the Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council, and was soon promoted to Chief of Planning. After only eighteen months, Hal left TBRPC, walking away from the security of a paycheck, benefits, and pension, and began painting with intense passion, canvases of pristine natural areas that were fast becoming bulldozed and developed in an "insensitive" manner. 

Since then he has become renowned for bringing about heightened concern for our disappearing natural environment, and for lifting humankind's spirit through his art. He is a master of media, ranging from watercolors, acrylic, delicate original lithographs and etching aquatints on copper plates, to monumental stainless steel sculpture and digital mixed media works. 

In 1987, the Pinellas County Commission proclaimed Hal Stowers their native son and a "Natural Treasure." During the 1993 legislative session, a three month long, Major Solo Retrospective Exhibition of his art entitled "THE GULF TO THE CARIBBEAN," was presented at Florida's Capitol in Tallahassee. Hal was recognized as "Distinguished Landscape Architecture Alumnus 1993," by the Department of Landscape Architecture, College of Architecture, University of Florida, and elected a Full Member of the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) in 1995. 

Hal's wife and creative assistant, B.J., in collaboration with Hal, has recently published a coffee table book entitled 

"HAL STOWERS & The Art of LIFE BLENDING® - HOW TO KEEP YOUR CREATIVE JUICES FLOWING" 

"Sharing LIFE BLENDING and its many messages with the world
is now an important part of our work."
