Charmaine Santana

As a veteran of the Marine Corps, I've learned the importance of precision, structure, and organization. I've dedicated four years to have those qualities embedded in me. While I they are installed in me, I've never perfected them, and I don't intend to. The freehanded, impromptu paintings are in some way, a rebellion against perfection, precision, structure, and organization. The lucidity of watercolors felt refreshing after leaving a bold world such as the reality of the military. I aim for simplicity, I take inspiration from nostalgia, and I like to put my daydreams in view.

Enrique Plazola

I've done many many art shows around san diego for the past 5-8 years. I've done live art and events, and done kids fairs and farmers markets.

I used to work at the Oceanside farmers market doing caricatures about 5 years ago.

Ryder Greyshock

Hello, my name is Ryder Greyshock, I am 13 years old and I am from Lake Forest, California. I began an interest in photography about four years ago, when I was given for Christmas, a small point and shoot camera. I used to go out with all of my friends and I would take all kinds of action shots, but the real reason that I did that so often was I had just caught the photography bug. So after a few years of small cameras and gopros, I decided it was time I buy a real camera and learn real photography. So I purchased a Canon 600d and between my photography class and the articles I studied I was able to comprehend the advanced techniques used to provide the stunning image that viewers look for. So I love to shoot colorful, mind blowing images that would stop a viewer or make them wish they were there. However over the years I haven’t I haven’t lost the passion for shooting action such as skateboarding or especially the ocean! I feel the ocean is my canvas; that is one of my favorite places to shoot.. When the waves are small and the skate park is empty I go on the hunt for curious, touching colors that move me and my soul. I was introduced to the art walk by my Digital Photography teacher, Angela Kiyono. She has been a great inspiration to me and always helped challenged me to improve. I would love to make Mrs. Kiyono proud and be able to show my work at the artwalk.

Karla Magana

I am a San Diego based artist and designer w/ a passion for the low brow art movement. My specialty is lovely ladies with a dark twist. Skulls? Cat eyeliner? Unnatural hair colors? That's me! My mediums of choice are acrylic and ink on wood, watercolor paper and recycled board.

Cici Porter Groupé

I create art that celebrates the wild rhythms, luscious colors, and endless forms of nature. Her beauty and unbridled generosity are my inspiration and joy. I want to share my vision from the heart of Pacha Mama with a world that sorely needs to rest in her dignity, dance in her mystery and contemplate the majesty of all her creation!

I studied art in college and then flew off to Alaska to paint, play guitar, and write songs by a mountain stream. With art as a personal companion, I followed her music into a career that ultimately led to Southern California, regional touring and national music awards. Now I've turned my focus back to painting in a studio on Palomar Mountain, outside of San Diego. My work expresses the joy I feel at being back in the arms of Mother Nature with a paintbrush in hand.

P.J. Eichten

I am a San Diego native, born and raised, and I bought a home in Oceanside two years ago with my wife. We love Oside and know it's the perfect town for us and we're proud to call it our home. I studied studio art in college and have continued to pursue various media, spray paint art being my favorite for the past couple years. I love graffiti as a public expression and often subversive art form.

Echoes of the Future

I was born in Iceland, where art and literature have always played a strong part in our culture. Iceland’s powerful nature, stern Lutheran tradition, and ancient sagas permeated my experiences growing up.

“Echoes of the Future” is a photographic series that is informed by my early experiences which addresses cultural and economic issues. Images of abandoned, crumbling and burned husks of deserted buildings represent our current declining Western civilization. The framed vestiges of the past, preserved through art, are imposed upon these dilapidated walls; depictions of classical mythology, epic stories, religious firmaments, and the common, vibrant commerce of a past era. These warehouses and homes, scattered about the American landscape, were all once occupied by people who loved, worked, and created families. Against this abandoned stage, the fragments of our history litter the walls like graffiti, reminding us where we’ve been. As our present becomes history flowing into the past, how will our story be told? Which fragments will endure to echo into the future

Bob Boon

My name is Bob Boon. I have loved photography for the last forty years of my life. I am a rock n roll photographer by trade and hobby but am inspired by everything that surrounds me. When I recently went to France I was inspired by Monet's gardens at Giverny which then led me to imagine Monet walking around all of Paris, which led to this show. My greatest support comes from my lovely wife Kim and my amazing children who have stood still for my photographs for years and years and will continue to do so. Enjoy your walk with Monet.
