Alessandra has exhibited internationally and is represented by galleries in California, Oregon, Idaho, Massachusetts, and the prestigious Festival of Arts in Laguna Beach. Please join her on May 2 to celebrate the opening of her exhibition at Sandstone Gallery on Historic Gallery Row in Laguna Beach from 6-9 PM.

Starry Night | Exhibition by Sunny Kim
Sunny’s abstract paintings are expressions of cosmic formations. In Sunny’s words, “Each canvas represents and is a symbol of movements and colors of heavenly bodies and their celestial patterns in opposition—a state of both chaos and order!” The painting seen here, Starry Night 23-ll, holds all the energy present in Kim's interpretation of the cosmos.
We hope you’ll join us for the opening of Sunny’s show on Thursday evening, November 2, from 6pm - 9pm. In the meantime, we invite you to check out more of Sunny’s work @sunnykimart and on our website.

The Light & The Vessel
Teena Zerefos is an Australian contemporary artist known for her captivating modern abstract works inspired by the Mediterranean and her Greek Island heritage. Teena was instinctively drawn to the deep majestic blues of the Aegean Sea and the vases and trinkets that adorn the tiny village in Greece that her family is from. "It feels like coming home holding a brush with a magnificent cobalt blue, and this art I call ‘Mediterranean Abstract’ flowed through me like light onto the canvas”.
