Featured artists in this gallery:
JAVIERA ESTRADA
Multimedia artist Javiera Estrada was born in Mexico in 1981 and moved to the United States in 1989. Her childhood was heavily influenced by her training in classical piano and violin, which continue to inspire her aesthetic today. She attended Santa Monica College and received her Certificate of Photography in 2009. Estrada’s broad scope of work is a reflection of memories that she has shaped into her reality. A seeker of the spiritual, Estrada believes that every piece of art created is a self-portrait, a physical expression of that inner nameless world one’s soul inhabits. Using photography as her main visual medium, the sound of the camera's click offers her the perfect confluence between the real and the ethereal. A multifarious artist, Estrada’s creative expression encompasses traditional photography alongside mixed media. Her mixed media works are a comment on the natural cycle of decomposition and reflected through the deconstruction of the image.
Estrada has exhibited in galleries in the United States, Europe, and Asia. Her work is part of private and corporate collections internationally. In 2014 she won Art Slant’s Juried Competition, was a 2015 finalist for the Emerging Focus Competition and is the 2017 winner of the ND Awards Fine Art Category. Estrada made her first short film in 2017 entitled, The Dream, which was selected in Best of Shorts at the Carmel International Film Festival. Estrada currently lives and works in Los Angeles.
ERIC MERRELL
Known for his paintings of deserts during the day and at night, Los Angeles-based artist Eric Merrell utilizes color throughout his work and paints a diverse array of subjects, including city streets, skate parks, and portraits.
A native Californian, Merrell spent his formative years on both east and west coasts. Early art classes in northern California preceded art school, which he attended first in Philadelphia and later in Pasadena, graduating from Art Center College of Design.
In 2009, Merrell was selected for a Joshua Tree Highlands Artist Residency where he spent two summer months painting in the Mojave desert. In 2010 he presented a solo exhibition of the work in New York City, and another the following year in Pasadena, CA. In 2019 he was chosen for an Artist Residency with the Mojave National Preserve Artist Foundation; an exhibition is scheduled for 2020.
The poetry and light found in these quiet and often overlooked desert lands have provided inspiration for the artist for more than fifteen years. There is a mystery to these places during the day that only increases at night; as a result, desert nocturnes have become a significant part of his oeuvre.
His work has been exhibited at The Autry Museum of the American West, the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, the Wildling Museum in Santa Ynez, the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, and in the Coors Western Art Exhibition in Denver, among others. He has consistently exhibited for over a decade in the California Art Club’s Annual Gold Medal Exhibitions.
JOHN DE HERRERA
John De Herrera is an artist with degrees in art, literature, film studies, and political science, from the University of California at Santa Barbara. Now into his fifties, he continues to create, adhering to a decades-old practice of using traditional materials in untraditional ways, all aiming for his ideal in art: it must float, and it must glow.
For the last ten years he has owned and operated Colorfield Arts Studio in Santa Barbara’s Funk Zone and now has his work hanging in homes around the globe. He has been a featured artist in the FZ annual group show since its inception.
TONY DeVONEY
Tony DeVoney is a self taught artist from New Orleans, based in Los Angeles. The artist draws inspiration fromemotional reflection, movement and spontaneity represented through his detailed use of texture and colorlayering. He works with acrylics and new forms of abstractions, developing a practice that tends to mold to hisenvironment, often experimenting with different fabrics and mediums. With intention he creates paintings usingan uninhibited dynamic volume of layered shapes and tones allowing for the energy in his work to read withdepth, whilst still presenting simplicity
LISA KOWALSKI
“Lisa Kowalski is not afraid to paint. With bold, fluid brush strokes and minimal style, her paintings have a childlike freedom and a sophisticated spontaneity. Her dynamic oil paintings are infused with creative energy, an intuitive sense of color, and an innate understanding of composition. Reminiscent of the Abstract Expressionist movement of the 1940′s and beyond, Kowalski unleashes the creativity of her approach, therefore making the process just as important as the painting itself. She paints what she feels, capturing the essence of herself and all she has absorbed in uncalculated marks, rich textures, and games of positive and negative space.”
- Scott Lafontsee

Her work has been exhibited in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Pienza, Italy. She studied at the Los AngelesCounty High School for the Arts and earned her BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute
