Members of the Artists' Collective

Stained Glass artist Jeff Levine says, "All our lives, we are taught not to break glass. What a mistake and what satisfaction in breaking it to your own vision. Many of my pieces combine glass and wood often found on local beaches.
|
I allow the wood to inspire and dictate the direction of the piece – sometimes representational, other times more abstract. I always try to preserve “live edges,” which contribute to the uniqueness of each piece. Living on the California Coast is a constant source of inspiration and materials."
|
Each member of the Collective volunteers as a Gallery Host, representing our exhibitors. Two well-lighted galleries provide space for visitors to browse for handmade gifts, jewelry, and original wall art at accessible prices. Working in the gallery allows members to learn the gallery business and how to merchandise their artwork.

The act of painting is meditative for me, and often results in a painting which engenders a peaceful feeling in others. That feeling is my intent. I believe I can capture the transitory nature of my subjects by using techniques which are available to me primarily in water media.

I've always been interested in art, the old masters style in particular. By mixing my own colors, I’m able to use a limited palette, and oils are a forgiving medium.

My passion is nature photography, long exposure photography, and the use of natural light in my images. I attempt to capture the beauty of nature in all its forms, large and small. My creative vision is to share nature as it truly exists.

One day, she came across watercolors and said she “thought that was a medium I’d like to try." Since coming to the Coastside, Sharon has continued to paint with Priscilla Klass. |
