INFINITE POSSIBILITIES… AND A WHOLE LOT OF ART, COMMUNITY & LUCK!
What a FUN day at the gallery!
Kay & Ron stopped by to pick up the paintings they purchased while visiting beautiful Hermosa Beach, and they ended up becoming part of the fun by helping me draw our raffle winners!
Our raffle paintings were very popular with several people asking if they could pre-purchase them! Rather than choosing favorites, we decided to let luck take over and raffle them off. And what a fun decision that turned out to be!
🐸 THE FROG “Kaeru” by Val Chan
Val Chan’s mixed-media work combines layers of paint, collage and expressive mark-making. Val is building a wonderful artistic life in Florida there while still having a special connection to Hermosa.
And the lucky winner of her fabulous Frog is…
🎉 MATT! 🎉
Matt is the owner of Redondo Smile Dental in Redondo Beach and he is such a wonderful supporter of our community and local artists and little league baseball! He genuinely shows up for the people and community around him, so it’s wonderful that this lucky piece found its way to him. Congratulations, Matt! 🥳
🐓 THE ROOSTER by the amazing Robert Burridge
And then there’s our Rooster by none other than Robert Burridge, an award-winning contemporary painter whose career is truly remarkable. Bob is an internationally exhibited artist, teacher, author, juror and mentor, with major honors including the Philadelphia Watercolor Society’s prestigious Crest Medal for Achievement in the Arts. His work has appeared in galleries, museums, corporate collections and on products ranging from Starbucks mugs to fine-art editions.
And the winner of the Rooster?
🏆 KIRK! 🏆
Kirk was walking by with his adorable little dog, saw all the artwork, decided to come inside and buy a raffle ticket… and now he is the lucky winner!
Infinite possibilities!
A huge thank you to everyone who participated, supported our exhibit and fundraiser for Young At Art, and made this such a joyful, memorable raffle!
