entucky artist Rodney Hatfield has spent decades building a rapport with his audience, starting with a music career that blossomed in the ’60s and has since seen him performing with some of Lexington’s most memorable bands: The Hatfield Clan, the Shysters, the Metropolitan Blues All-Stars and, most recently, Tin Can Buddha. After being introduced to the harmonica at a young age, Hatfield took to the instrument with passion, laying the groundwork for his life in music. He soon found his niche in the Lexington music scene, harmonica in hand, jamming and recording music with a rotating cast of local musicians and eventually performing in bars and clubs across the country. He became a gifted front man, singing, playing harmonica, and becoming well known for infusing every show with witty banter and references to characters he invented in his fruitful imagination.

Somewhere over the course of that creative journey, Hatfield became more serious about pursuing another creative outlet he had enjoyed since childhood: drawing and painting. Initially shy about sharing his visual art with the world, he explained, “As long as I was making art in my apartment and only my friends were looking at it, I felt okay. But the idea of exhibiting publicly really made me nervous.”

Some friends finally talked him into participating in an art exhibit at the now-defunct Lexington restaurant Alfalfa, which was a popular gathering spot with a commitment to supporting and exhibiting their work.

“It was great. The response was all posi-

tive, and it gave me a lot more confidence,” Hatfield recalled. Once his art began to gain wider attention, he found the need to separate his musical persona from his work as an artist. So, he invented an alter ego and began painting under the pseudonym “Art Snake,” a play on the scholarly academic concept “Art for art’s sake.”

While Hatfield is still, on occasion, a band front man, his artwork has become his main focus. This month, a new exhibit featuring nearly 50 new works from the unique visionary — including about 24 smaller, 6x6-inch paintings — will open at New Editions Gallery.

A creative child growing up, Hatfield describes a rural childhood with a lot of freedom to explore. He grew up on Blackberry Creek in Pike County, surrounded by family, friends and a rich tradition of

storytelling that has served him well as both a musician and visual artist. He does not remember a time when he didn’t draw.

“Someone gave me a crayon, I guess, and I never stopped,” he recounted with a laugh.

As his youthful talent developed, the selftaught artist became the go-to at school to provide art for various projects. Hatfield admits he was not a model student and recalls being kicked out of art class on a couple of occasions for cutting up and, as he describes it, “creating a disturbance.”

After high school, he moved to Lexington to attend the University of Kentucky and ended up making the city his new home for decades to come, pouring his passion and talent into a creative life brimming with music and art. Many of the characters he met in his daily life and while playing music late into the night would show up as figures in his work.

IMAGES FURNISHED

24 of Hatfield’s painting in the upcoming exhibit are only 6”x6”, including the works above (l-r, “The Girl with the Accordian Heart,” “Catatonia” and “Irby”).

Now a seasoned and successful visual artist, Hatfield’s playful yet calculated explorations in color, texture and mixed media have helped him evolve into one of the most revered and collected artists in the region. In addition to Lexington and Louisville, his work has been shown in Chicago, San Fransisco, Atlanta and Scottsdale, and he has exhibited consistently in Santa Fe, where is currently represented by the Susan Eddings Perez Gallery. His relationship with Lexington’s New Editions Gallery goes back 22 years, with Hatfield showing work in group and solo shows. New Editions Gallery owner Frankie York says of Hatfield, “What an honor it has been to represent him for so many years. With roots going back to the Hatfields and McCoys and an outstanding art and music career, today Rodney has become a true Kentucky legend. His deep fan and collector base continues to grow to authentically represent his world around him. Whether on canvas, paper, panel or in conversation, his artistic voice is clear and strong.”

Hatfield’s work these days consists of both large- and smallscale paintings, drawings, assemblages and all manner of mixed media pieces that art lovers adore. His work is so diverse in subject matter and palette that it’s not easily described. Often toggling between abstract and figurative, his subjects range from the recognizable to the fantastical, coming straight out of Hatfield’s imagination (though he also credits a little magic in the process). A diversity of style and subject matter that defies pigeonholing has become his trademark, and he likes it that way. Color figures prominently in his work, with shades so unusual you might swear he’s invented new ones. The playful and sometimes bizarre titles Hatfield gives his pieces can serve as a jumping off place for viewers to write their own stories accompanying his work.

When he is at the easel working, Hatfield admits the outcome is often a surprise. Or to better describe it, the finished project is not entirely up to him; the compositions just happen the way they do. His experience expressing and improvising musically has aided his visual art process, he said.

“Art comes from a mysterious place,” he said. “The creative process I use in painting is a lot the same as with music — performing a solo or being deep in a painting springs from the same place.”

Hatfield’s exhibit of new artwork, “One Man Band,” will be on display at New Editions Gallery from Nov. 17-Dec. 23, with an opening reception taking place during Gallery Hop on Friday, Nov.17 (5-8 p.m.).

The artist recently took a few moments to answer some questions for us about his life and his work.

Tell me about growing up. How did art and music enter your life? I grew up “on Blackberry Creek,” as they say where I’m from, in Pike County. I loved playing in the creek when I was a kid and some of my earliest memories are of making things out of the clay from the creek bed. I have a vivid memory of digging clay out of the creek bed and making things, so I guess you could say that’s when it started. In first grade, a drawing I did won an art contest.

The drawing was of a train disappearing in the distance with people running to catch it. The last guy in the line of running people was a guy whose suitcase had busted open and a pair of red polka dotted boxer shorts was flying out. I guess they liked that and thought it was funny. People liked things I drew so I continued to draw a lot through high school and was always asked to help out with things that needed illustrations.

As far as getting my start in being interested in music, my family always listened to music, and my dad and uncle played. I grew up with bluegrass music like Flatt and Scruggs. Then I got a harmonica and really became obsessed. I loved it. Later of course I found rock and roll and the blues.

My parents were maybe a little worried when it became clear I wanted to be an artist and musician, but they never tried to turn me away from my creative pursuits.

They understood my love for it all. I’ve heard the stories of artists whose parents discouraged their talents, and I feel lucky that didn’t happen to me.

You have such a unique style and your subject matter is so diverse and unusual. How do you come to do the work you do? I am often asked how or why I do what I do. I don’t really have a choice. I don’t plan or spend a lot of time thinking about the work. The head is the least thing involved with this. Thinking is the enemy of art. Art has to transcend thinking.

Tell me about your process. Every time I sit down at the easel it’s like the first time.

It’s very spontaneous. I liken it to a song. A song has structure — chords, bars, a solo. A painting has canvas, paint, brushes, palette knives; that’s the structure, but it’s all free form. I have to slow the tempo down. If

you can do that, something that was a blur can become a story.

What inspires you? Who are influences? Musically, I also have more inspirations than I can name. Visual artists I love would have to include Picasso, Miro and Chagall. But there are so many I admire, and inspiration comes from many, many places. I have seen artists in New York and Santa Fe that knock my socks off. I come back to my studio, and I have to reel it in because it’s one thing to be inspired but you don’t want to imitate.

connect so passionately to your work?

It’s kind of a mystery. I think this whole idea of transcending everyday thinking and finding this other place that connects us all is part of it. Everyone has their own politics and life issues, but if you can get past all that, you come into this place where it’s all one. Maybe the attraction is “the familiar in the unfamiliar” — a place people recognize, but not in an everyday kind of way.

Name a favorite movie of yours. The first thing that popped into my head was a Fellini movie, “Amarcord.”

Your figures seem to inhabit a different world. This stuff already exists.

You just have to put yourself in this place where you can find it and discover what’s in your head. A favorite quote from William Butler Yeats hangs in my studio, “The World is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.”

Where do you think your talents in art, music and humor come from? Do you recognize these things in other family members, or did you leave your family scratching their heads? They were definitely scratching their heads. Like I said, my family didn’t discourage me, but they often wondered about me.

Your work is so beloved and cherished by your collectors, and there are many people who have collected your work for decades. Why do you think people

rowing up, Rob Sharp was a kid in a candy store — literally.

The locally owned and operated Regency Road candy store Sharp’s Candies celebrates 50 years of business this month.

As a child, Sharp, who’s now the owner of Sharp’s Candies on Regency Road, spent time at his grandfather’s store in Evansville, Ind. helping him to make candy.

“When I was just a young, young kid, my grandfather had a candy store and that’s where my father learned to make candy,” he said. “I would go to my grandfather’s business and he’d give me some little task to do just because I was a child.”

Now, Sharp is looking to celebrate his company’s 50th anniversary. Started by his mother and father, Becky and Bob Sharp, in 1972, Sharp’s Candies has become a Lexington stand-out.

It all began in a storefront in Rosemont Garden shopping center on Harrodsburg Road, said Lisa Sharp, Rob’s wife and company co-owner. What was once the only candy store in a small town providing chocolates to locals now has a home in a building that looks like a gingerbread house, sending chocolates to customers all across the country.

“When we moved to Lexington, there were no other candy stores here,” Rob Sharp said. “And Lexington back in 1972 when we first got here was just such a small

town. I had an uncle who was the founding president of Southern Belle Dairy. My dad was going to open up a location in Bowling Green, but he didn’t on the advice of my uncle. He said that Lexington had the fastest growing milk routes of any city that he served in the state. He advised us to come here, so my dad literally loaded up the whole family and we came here.”

At Sharp’s Candies, candy is made and packaged in-house in small batches, with no preservatives.

That business moved to the current location on Regency Road in 1979. Lisa and Rob bought the business from Rob’s parents in 1991. And by 1996, Rob had decided he wanted to make the outside of his building match the inside.

“I had this idea bouncing around in my head for quite some that I wanted a building that at a glance of an eye, when someone was driving by or walking by, you would know it was a candy shop,” he said.

“The problem was having it look like a gingerbread house or a candy shop, but not having it look too much like a holiday-only spot. That was a little bit of a challenge. I think we pulled it off.”

Still some things haven’t changed. Now, as then, he said, the candy starts with fresh ingredients and no preservatives.

In fact, the quality and freshness are what have kept them from expanding, Lisa Sharp said.

“We make our candy here,” she said. “A lot of stores buy the majority of their candy and just repackage it. But we actually make it, and we don’t use any preservatives… they’re made in small batches and we only have one location. That way we know when everything is made and can maintain the quality we want our candy to have.”

“We’re a place that people go to for special occasions when they want the very best.”

ROB SHARP, OWNER OF SHARP’S CANDY

As expected, their busiest seasons are Christmas, Valentine’s Day and Easter. People flock to the gingerbread decorated house, the Sharps said, but now, thanks to online ordering, many of their products are shipped to places outside of Lexington.

Their most popular sellers are saddles, Rob Sharp said — caramel, pecan and chocolate confections. Another favorite of Rob’s is the bourbon truffle he invented.

“It took me years to get it just right, but it’s something I’m pretty proud of,” he said. “We have the bourbon creams, which are a mild flavor and then we have the bourbon truffles, which are very robust flavors. Everyone that has one is always taken aback by how strong they are and how good they are. They’re like, ‘Oh my gosh, it’s like a shot of bourbon.’”

Near Thanksgiving, the store also has an annual cashew sale.

“We sell thousands and thousands of thousands of cashews because we roast them all here,” Lisa said. “We’ve just had a huge following on those for years. Some people will buy them raw and roast them themselves or put them in a trail mix. And others will come in and buy them to give out as gifts. They will come in and buy 30 of them as gifts for neighbors, the mailman, the babysitter.”

As the holidays and their 50th anniversary approach, Sharp said his business offers one-of-a-kind treats no other store can provide.

“We only have one location; we’re a specific destination to get to,” he said. “We started in Lexington and I don’t know that any other [local] candy shop can make that claim. We have always been in Lexington exclusively. We’re a place that people go to for special occasions when they want the very best.” n

Roasted Kabocha Squash

INTRO AND RECIPE BY OUITA MICHEL PHOTO BY TALITHA SCHROEDER

Some of my favorite salads involve roasted vegetables, and kabocha squash is my all-time favorite roasted vegetable. This dense, delicious member of the Hubbard family has dark orange or green skin that is edible when cooked. Happy Jack’s Pumpkin Patch grows it for Holly Hill Inn. This is a simple but elegant side dish or starter for a lovely fall menu. Enjoy it with hard cider or a glass of dry riesling wine. One small squash makes six portions.

Ouita Michel is the owner/chef at the Holly Hill Co. family of restaurants: Honeywood, Holly Hill Inn, Wallace Station, Windy Corner and Zim’s.

Ingredients: • One small kabocha squash, thoroughly washed • 2 tablespoons olive oil • Kosher salt, to taste • 1 cup fresh apple cider • One-half cup toasted pumpkin seeds • 3 ounces of thinly sliced country ham (I prefer Nancy Newsom’s prosciutto-cured country ham) • 2 tablespoons of pumpkin seed oil (or your favorite nut-based oil) Directions:

seeds and pulp. Cut each half into nice wedges.

Lay the wedges out on a sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Roast until tender and lightly brown.

While the squash is roasting, bring the apple cider to a boil in a saucepan and reduce by two-thirds.

Toast the pumpkin seeds, and season with salt and a pinch of cayenne (if you like a little heat!).

To assemble the salad, arrange the kabocha wedges on a platter (or two wedges for each person on individual plates). Spoon the apple cider reduction over the squash, and sprinkle with the pumpkin seeds, lightly crushing them as you go.

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.

Trim the stem off the outside of the squash, cut in half, and scoop out the

Drape the wedges with the country ham and finally, drizzle with a little pumpkin seed oil. n

sk Lexingtonians what they recall about late attorney Gatewood Galbraith and most will remember him as a perpetual — and perpetually unsuccessful — gubernatorial candidate who advocated tirelessly for the legalization of cannabis. Many will also recollect the exuberant, outsized personality that made him a local icon.

But there was much more to Galbraith, both personally and politically, than many know, and a new biography of this beloved character reveals much about his beliefs and the life that helped shape them.

“Gatewood: Kentucky’s Uncommon Man,”

by Matthew Strandmark, began with the donation of Galbraith’s papers and other memorabilia to the University of Kentucky Special Collections Research Center.

Strandmark, an education archivist and academic liaison to the Appalachian Studies department who originally hails from Madison, Indiana, explained that the department was working to celebrate the acquisition in some way, and he helped create an exhibit with the materials. It was Strandmark’s introduction to Galbraith, and as he explained, he quickly became “curious to learn more.”

“We had a small oral history collection that included about 15 interviews with his close family and friends,” Strandmark said. “During Covid, while we were trying to find ways to provide materials online, we could luckily do oral history interviews over Zoom. I was able to conduct about 35 more interviews in 2020 and 2021 and expanded the collection.”

Through his research and interviews, Strandmark found that many people with whom he spoke had an incomplete understanding of Galbraith’s platform and the full impact he had on Kentucky politics. Thus, the idea for the book, which was published by University of Kentucky Press and will be officially released on Nov. 7, was born.

Born in 1947 in rural Carlisle, Kentucky, to parents Henry and Dottie, Galbraith was the fourth of seven children. The family moved to Lexington when Galbraith was 12 years old, where he attended UK as an undergraduate and eventually graduated from the University of Kentucky College of Law in 1977.

As a young adult, Galbraith solidified his platform on ending the prohibition of cannabis, laying out a tax structure that called for the government to control how the drug is processed and distributed.

“His plan for the legalization of cannabis goes back to the mid ’70s, when he started writing and talking about this,” Strandmark said.

Galbraith’s first attempt to run for office was in 1983, when he ran for agriculture commissioner but lost. He twice lost elections for the 6th District Congressional seat, and once for attorney general. Galbraith also ran for governor of Kentucky five times, with his final attempt in 2011, less than two months before his death.

While he was best known for his support of the legalization of cannabis, Galbraith also believed strongly in supporting rural communities like the one he lived in during his childhood in Nelson County.

Gatewood Galbraith led a “mischeivious and idyllic” childhood in Carlisle, Kentucky, part of a tight-knit community and large extended family.

“He was always drawn to this kind of rural ideal and despised corporations and industries that came in and took advantage of Kentucky. So, while he was in the news for supporting cannabis for medical access and for industrial hemp, he was also very much for environmental protections and trying to end mountaintop removal in eastern Kentucky,” Strandmark explained.

Galbraith met country music star Willie Nelson during his 1991 gubernatorial run, and the two maintained a lifelong friendship. Nelson performed a concert in support of Galbraith in 1991.

A populist in the true sense, Galbraith advocated for educational vouchers for students in Kentucky. He also worked to find ways to drive up tourism, seeing it as an avenue to economic revitalization in eastern Kentucky well ahead of the crowd.

In his first campaign for governor in 1991, Galbraith started to point out the effect that opioids and synthetic painkillers were having on the smaller communities around Kentucky that he visited on campaign stops.

“That was at least a decade before we heard that from other politicians or before that entered the parlance,” Strandmark said.

When looking back at Galbraith’s career, Strandmark has a theory as to why he never won a race.

“You can’t really frame him in any way that we understand politics today because on the one hand he was very much a libertarian in that he wanted to put the government back in a little box. But on the other hand, he was for environmental protections and educational vouchers. He had a very specific set of ideas that he was interested in that didn’t really conform to anything — which also made it really hard to find his way,” he explained.

Between the years of 1983-2011, Gatewood Galbraith ran for a handful of public offices, including agriculture commissioner, 6th District Congressional seat, attorney general and governor.

“He would often try to talk about the issues that he was passionate about that people were maybe less interested in,” Strandmark added. “But the cannabis issue that made him part of the political conversation and that got media coverage was an issue that, for a lot of voters, came too early for their comfort. It hurt his opportunity to raise money for campaigns or to win elections.”

Galbraith, no matter what, was stalwart in his beliefs, said Strandmark. “His platforms didn’t change for the 30 years that he was in politics.”

Citing interviews with Paul Patton, Ernie Fletcher, Andy Barr, Ben Chandler and many others, the book also explores Galbraith’s personal life, including his family life and his career practicing criminal and personal injury law in Lexington.

“He was, by all accounts, a brilliant attorney. No one wanted to argue against Gatewood in front of a group of people. He had this ability to connect with people on a visceral level,” said Strandmark.

He was also known for his uncommon generosity.

Said Strandmark, Galbraith would “…walk

around downtown and give money to the homeless, or he would go to McDonald’s and order 50 breakfast sandwiches and drive around handing them out.”

“There was a story from his family about him coming home one day not wearing any pants. He said he had picked up a hitchhiker who was wearing completely ragged clothing and he literally gave him the clothes off of his back and didn’t think twice about it,” he said.

Though Galbraith was never successful as a candidate, his impact on the political conversation in Kentucky can’t be discounted.

Strandmark said, “Everyone I interviewed said Gatewood was ahead of his time.”

Strandmark wants readers to walk away with a more complete picture of Galbraith and a better understanding of his influence on Kentucky politics, both past and present.

He said, “A lot of people know him as a colorful social and cultural folk hero because he was really interesting and engaging and in the news all the time. But I think it’s important that the impact he had on Kentucky politics is not overlooked.” n

Author Matthew Strandmark will discuss and sign his book “Gatewood: Kentucky’s Uncommon Man” at a couple of local events this month: • Nov. 5 at 2 p.m.: Lexington History Museum’s LEXTalk Series, Dr. Thomas Hunt-Morgan House, 201 N Mill St. • Nov. 18 at 2 p.m.: Book signing event, Joseph-Beth Booksellers, 161 Lexington Green Cir.

In this play by Tony-Award winning playwright Rupert Holmes, Supreme Court Justice “RBG” welcomes a friend of the family to her cozy chambers to convey, over the course of 90 fascinating and often funny minutes, a sense of her life and its many trials: losing her mother the day before she graduated as valedictorian of her Brooklyn high school; being one of only nine young women studying law at Harvard while also raising a daughter and helping her husband battle cancer; fighting for women's rights in the 1970s before condescending all-male courts; and taking courageous stands for human rights as a voice of reason amid a splintering and increasingly politicized Supreme Court. 7:30 p.m. EKU Center for the Arts, 822 Hall Drive, Richmond, Ky. www.ekucenter.org UK Department of Theatre and Dance: “Good.” Nov. 9-11.

Professor Halder, a scholar of German literature, is a good man. People tell him so, even as they come to him to burn his books. Set in 1930s Germany, this play explores the creeping growth of fascism as it trickles poison into the ear and tells us that “others are the problem.” The good professor must make some choices to protect his books and his life. “Good” is a fever dream that examines how self-preservation can lead to selfdestruction. "If I am not for myself, then who is for me?" says Halder. 7:30 p.m. Thurs.-Fri.; 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Sat. UK College of Fine Arts Guignol Theatre, 465 Rose St. finearts.uky.edu

University of Kentucky Department of Theatre and Dance: “Little Women.” Nov. 16-18. “You can be lonely in a crowd, if it's not the right crowd,” says Jo in this sparkling stage version of Louisa May Alcott's beloved novel about the March sisters.

Playwright Kate Hamill (The Wall Street Journal’s 2021 Playwright of the Year) honors the spirit of Alcott's original story while freshly interpreting it for a new era. This adaptation will have audiences falling in love with Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy all over again as they grow from young girls to little women.
