A Vision Brought to Life
Blazing Sol was founded in 2022 by Selena Rodriguez, an artist, teacher, and Chicago native. After years of teaching, she felt a deep desire to create something of her own—a space where art could be explored outside the classroom, and where people of all ages could experience the same joy and discovery she had witnessed countless times with her students.
This vision wasn't a departure from teaching—it was an expansion of what had always inspired her. In the classroom, she saw how creativity could unlock something powerful in both children and adults. Whether it was a student mixing colors for the first time, an adult reconnecting with their artistic side, or the simple joy of making something by hand, the creative process had a way of bringing people into the present moment, sparking connection, confidence, and joy.
Blazing Sol was born from this belief—that art is more than just making something beautiful. Art is play, it's discovery, it's self-expression. It's an opportunity to step outside the everyday, to create with freedom, and to embrace the process without judgment.
At Blazing Sol, we provide space for people to experience creativity in its purest form, whether at a celebration, a community gathering, or a moment of personal reflection. It's about color, connection, and the magic of bringing something to life—together.
