Local Art Walk

Jason Luper

I try to allow the purest, most random thoughts to spill onto canvas, as if each painting is capture a fleeting moment of thought. Art, to me, is the expression of what cannot otherwise be spoken, a reflection of the human experience.

Recently I have been moving towards a series of "micro paintings", mostly 6"x6" but not limited to those precise dimensions. The idea being to collect them in small groups, the sum being more than the individual parts.

Kellie Dantzler

As a teaching artist I use my art to encourage out-of-the-box thinking, and to bring entertainment fetes that celebrate the beauty rhythms within you.

I have started an art movement called, "The Younique Experience." Under this umbrella, I have created all times of art activities, outreach programs, and performance workshops to encourage and support fellow artist and entrepreneurs in finding ways to pursue their art or life work, while exploring how to achieve financial freedom and security.

Robert Berry

Rob Berry was born at Tripler Air Force Hospital on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. His father- ret. Commander Roy Berry (USN) retired when Rob was aged 2, and moved the family to San Diego. As a military officer, Robs father did not support his creative endeavors and actually sent Rob to a psychologist to have him "cured". Rob, however, persevered and has a degree in Environmental Design with a minor in English. Rob usually pays the bills by working for all types of engineers, architects and has even worked in the aerospace industry. Rob is currently 45, separated and living his dream. He currently resides in North County with his 2 children.

Creating fantastic works of art for my clients since 1970.

Cory Whitlock

I am always looking to find ways to share my love of surfing and surfboard making. My father Rusty Whitlock has been a professional surfboard shaper since 1963. He taught me how to surf and I went on to have a professional surfing career in the 90's. My younger brother Ricky has also had a professional surfing career and is now moving toward big wave surfing. In 1997 to further spread our family's love of surfing we started "The Whitlock Surf Experience" a surfing school that is dedicated to bringing our love of surfing to as many people as possible. Every year we teach hundreds of families how to surf and show them the art of surfboard making.

Vanessa Christie

A San Diego native, and graduate of UCLA Vanessa Christie has created art all her life. She studied art at City College, and Studio Art Center International, in Florence Italy before transferring to UCLA. Her art is inspired by music, poetry, mythology, the natural world, and especially by imagination and dreams. Her work is also influenced by her travels both in the United States and Europe. Much of her work features natural images such as trees, and constructed objects such as masks. Each of her paintings is an attempt to tell a story without words.

Elizabeth Joy Nelson

My Art Brings out the positive energy we need in life. My life has brought many struggles and the art that I bring to life I show on Canvas. My art work draws the audience in to the canvas to feel, think and be in the art moment themselves. As an artist I work hard in developing artwork that speaks to both myself and the audience. I try to incorporate designs colors and ideas with different lifestyles we go thru. The canvas speaks to me and I answer with the strokes on my brush.

I am Joy and love bringing art to life for others may it be big or small. In my past I served as combat marine. I use art to help with PTSD . I went to Columbus Art and Design where I learned how to incorporate life into art.

Everyday we serve our Military Men and Women here at Biggs and every weekend they come in from there day of motorcycle riding and we serve them food, My family are very Military proud and it makes me feel good to see and serve these guys and girls, Basically because they get to see and do things us "normal" citizens do not, possibly even wouldn't/couldn't do. 2'x4' Acrylic on Wood panel. So I will be painting more Military related pieces in the Future.
