01/13/2019 – Over the past week artist Peter Bedgood visited all of the art classes throughout Owasso Public Schools. The Artist-in-residence shared his talents, and gave advice to local students.
Peter is a writer, stand-up comic, cartoonist and humorist. The Broken Arrow graduate is known for his film roles in Jeffie Was Here (2010), Hoodwinked! (2005) and Chillicothe (1999).
According to his website, Peter started doing comics in the hospital for the nurses to give to patients. The nurses started to keep every drawing and from then on, he drew them every day and began posting them online.
On Friday, we visited the High School art classes of Kay Bratcher and Joan Wright, where Peter was sharing his talents and knowledge with their students. During our visit, we learned Joan is also a stand-up comic and was instrumental in bringing Peter to Owasso.
The video below captured a little of what we discovered on our visit.
