There's something for everyone, and definitely worth making a stop here to scope out Leah's newest creations!

I particularly liked the oil paintings, which were priced from $100 to $1,000 based on size and artist. Customers are not allowed to take Photos of the paintings without the artist's permission, I am not able to share photos with you. Hand-made cards and jewelry were also for sale and very reasonably priced. I just love pearls and did see some that I really liked, but they did not have electronic payments available the weekend I went, it was cash only. Make note of this in case you want to make a purchase. I do believe the credit card system would be up and running soon. The first Saturday of every month is an art fair, next to the Lubrary. Annual membership is $60 and gets you free admission to the fair, non-menbers pay $10. Sign up for art demonstrations, classes or orher upcoming events on their website.

The Durden Art studio/gallery is really something special. Its a bit hard to find since its…read moreactually integrated as part of Seven Degrees, the wedding and special events venue. The artist actually lives upstairs and actively paints and sells work downstairs. The space is always open during Laguna Beach Art Walk (first Thursday of each month) which is when I first discovered it. Michael Phillips is truly an Idiot Jenius just like his business card says. Michael is very approachable and happy to talk about his art. His paintings are hand drawn and painted, without the use of computer design aides, so his work is really unique. The best part is that each painting has a secret message! The paintings tell stories and usually have some social relevance. One of my favorites is Michael's take on a famous Norman Rockwell painting called "New Kids in the Neighborhood" that was about racism in the 1950's. The Durden version, "Moving Stars," has Starwars kids meeting up with Star Trek kids! Its a totally new take on how kids can play nice despite their differences ;) I also love the superhero clothesline piece. The secret words are the Batman theme song, "Dunna, dunna, dunna, dunna!" Its such a great idea to have the costumes hanging and make people test their trivia. There are several versions of the clotheslines, princesses, villains, female fashion icons, sports heroes, tough guys in movies and even a musicians version called "One Love." Michael doesn't do commission work any more since he's busy branching out into t-shirts and continuously making new work to keep up with his fans at the Sawdust Festival every Summer. So his original paintings sell really fast. The studio gallery has giclee reproductions for sale (he only makes 50 of each painting). You can also get paper prints ($25 or 2 for $40) both framed and unframed (5x7" frames are only $20). The greeting cards are hilarious! One of my favorites is the princess clothesline birthday card that reads: May your pumpkins always have wheels, your mice have GPS, your frogs be tall and handsome, and your watch remain forever at eleven Wishing you a bipity bobity birthday Happy Birthday Princess SO CREATIVE!!! But, the best find were the jigsaw puzzles!!! Such a great idea to take awesome colorful images and make them into something the whole family can enjoy. (99 pieces for $25 and 1000 pieces for $40) I think its remarkable that his prices are so reasonable especially for being an artist in Laguna Beach. Most of all, I love that he makes art for people of all ages. I'm going to love cartoons forever and his pop-art cartoon illustrations are just too good. You can see what's new from Durden Art on Facebook or Etsy but I think its so much more meaningful to meet and purchase from the artist in person.
