Ashley Gallagher
My name is Ashley Gallagher and I am a north county San Diego native currently residing in Carlsbad. Born in Escondido, I was raised on classic Disney movies and MTV. My obsession with pop culture and rock n' roll started at a very young age, as well as my passion for art. Using Disney princesses as models, I would draw them repeatedly, while programs such as Liquid Television and music videos would play in the background. I was never censored when it came to television, movies or music, as my parents are extremely liberal and totally awesome, and always pushed my quest for creativity. It's probably because of my upbringing that I feel there is no room for censorship in the world of art, in whatever artistic outlet it may be! Always an inspiring artist, it was in 2002 that I enrolled at SDSU in the studio arts program. It was here that I fell in love with oil painting. I graduated from SDSU in 2007 with the guidance of wonderful professors and mentors and earned a bachelor's degree in fine arts. Oil paint is the medium I continue to use today, constantly trying to improve my technical skills and master the medium I love. Presently I am very interested in the human form and bringing song lyrics to life. Motivated by some of my favorite bands and my gorgeous friends who graciously volunteer their time to model, I am able to make my vision a reality.
The Center for the Arts at TERI, Inc
The Center for the Arts at TERI, Inc in Oceanside CA opened its studio doors in 2007. The Art Studios provide a space for artists with autism and other developmental disabilities to collaborate, experiment with sensation, personal expression and to connect to you, as audience. The work is expressive and often collaborative; thus giving the opportunity of participation to people of diverse abilities. The greater body of work is in acrylics on various platforms, but includes creation in collage, mosaic, and mixed media.

Jeannie Marshall Ortiz
Jeannie Marshall Ortiz was born in San Diego, California, and grew up near the beach in south Ocean Beach. The ocean, the sun, and a good breeze have always been her comfort and inspiration. She gradually got into making art, starting with drawing, beading, sewing, and spinning and dying wool. She also played the flute, enjoyed jamming, and was part of a modern dance group called Vanguard. The rhythm and flow of all these elements is seen in her artwork.
She made her first linoleum block print when she was 21, living in what she called her ‘birdhouse’ in Golden Hills, while going to Mesa College. She majored in Art and Spanish, and took her first sculpting class there, which felt like coming home. Continuing her studies at San Francisco State University she enjoyed lithography, and, of course, sculpting. Finishing up her B.A. in Art with an emphasis in Sculpture, she made her first figurative sculpture in marble.
During her time in ‘The City’, she started traveling in Mexico and Guatemala, with just a backpack, and stayed in ‘pensiones’. Jeannie visited many museums and galleries, small towns, lots of water falls, made many friends, and drew in pencil and ink wherever she went. While living in Coatepec and Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico, she worked on a sizable sculpture in marble, made a variety of prints, a couple of smaller sculptures in wood, and lots of drawings. She also taught art and sculpting to various individuals, and ceramics to a sizable group at the University Extension.
Returning to San Diego, Jeannie raised three sons, earned teaching credentials, and taught bilingual elementary school children for nearly two decades, mostly in Vista. She used her Spanish a whole lot more than her art during that time.
Since retiring, she’s gotten back to sculpting, and even made a couple of prints.
She teaches sculpting to kids of all ages, and now has a single subject credential to teach art. In 2010, Jeannie participated in the Oceanside Sculpture Competition. She taught sculpting at Reach, an after school program run by the Vista Community Clinic, with a grant from the Kenneth A. Picerne Foundation in 2011. She was the featured artist of November 2011 at Vista Art Foundation’s Gallery 204. She teaches sculpting and mask making to elementary school students through ‘Kid’s College’, an after school enrichment program. She just learned to work in stained glass this winter, and loves the color and light. She also started making her first sculpture in olive wood recently. Jeannie shows her work at Artbeat on Main Street in Vista, and in the Artist Alliance shows around town.
Myles McGuinness
He’s a waterman and cameraman, can communicate verbally and visually, and manages brand strategy as well as he does typography. He is a Creative Director whose intuition and experience allow him to break from the script but stay exactly on-strategy. A fine artist backed with facts. And a shooter whose precision focus coexists with a broad depth of field. Instead of dictating, he integrates, shifting roles to fit the project, crew, client and shot at hand. Everything else just gets in the way of the idea.
He follows a basic principle: always go the extra mile.

Devin Castañeda
Devin Castañeda is a 20-year-old Oceanside local. Being from North County, he grew up near the ocean, and instantly became fond of it. His fondness of the water’s beauty, lead him to purchase a GoPro Hero 3. With this camera, Devin has captured thousands of ocean wave photographs. Even though he loved the ocean, he was ready to explore the world of photography by dipping into different genres.
From a GoPro Hero 3, to a Canon 40D, to a Canon 6D, Devin has expanded his playing fields from the ocean to the vast fields and streets of our county. Since purchasing his first Canon he has succeeded in dabbling in the different genres of photography including: action sports, fashion, night/ long exposure, nature, and lifestyle. Through the years his love for the art of photography has grown, and he hopes to continue to learn and develop his skill set and knowledge.
In the near future, Devin wants to develop his own website featuring a gallery of his work, as well as photographs to purchase from the site. Currently he has sold prints of the Oceanside Pier, the San Diego wild fires, and various sunset photos. With the love of the art and support of his family being his drive, he has and will continue to be the photographer to watch.
Kay Lim aka K Limonade
Residing in North County, San Diego, artist Kay Lim also known as K Limonade, can be found creating a wide variety of imaginative pieces. From psychedelic backgrounds and mildly morbid characters, she brings together elements from street art and cartoons.
