The Chino Hills Downtown Art Gallery is a great gallery that showcases a myriad of community art from local artists of all different ages and backgrounds, with some being able to be purchased at different prices points. Art from local competitions were also showcased. Paintings, photographs, and sculptures made up the diversity of the art. On the particular day we visited, programs that supported artists that were accessibility challenged were featured and it was also a great opportunity for us to learn about these great programs. In addition, the people volunteering at this space were also incredibly friendly and informative. I highly recommend visiting AND supporting this area if you're looking for a reprieve from shopping at The Shoppes.

You know, to make you feel extra fancy while you walk around and admire something you probably have no idea what it stands for. It's not a huge space and it does get hot during the Summer, though not as hot as the gallery upstairs. Oh! Which reminds me: In order to get here, you have to enter through the DA Center For The Arts building next to the bar on the corner, and make your way straight and down the stairs. The only low points is that it does tend to get really stuffy- especially during the Summer months- and smelly inside these galleries. It seems AC isn't very plentiful in these parts. But hey, hold your breath for a bit! There free food, wine, and art inside.

Looking for a great tattoo artist? Look no further. Jon Bryan at Sanctus Art Studio is your man! He is incredibly gifted, talented and professional. I've had work done by some really well known artists and Jon stands shoulder to shoulder with each of them. Whether black & gray, color or coverup, Jon does not disappoint. He is working on a tribute piece for me and I am thrilled with my new ink. I can't wait to finish it next session. I'll post a pic next week when it's done. Check out his work on Facebook or Instagram and hit him up for an appointment. read more

Overall, tony is awesome and he is very artistically skilled to whip up almost anything according to the customers preference. I like his positivity and confidence in his artwork. Tony was literally the only tattoo artist that was able to make me feel confident in doing my cover ups with him. He's very responsive and I can't wait to see how he will be covering up my tattoos.

He has great technique, his line work is clean, and you can tell he really takes pride in his work. I've gotten a couple of tattoos from other artists before, and honestly, I regret not going to Will for those too. Just this weekend, I went back to him to retouch an older tattoo that had faded and that I was never really happy with. Will brought it back to life and made it look so much better. I'm seriously stoked with how it turned out. One thing I really notice about his work is how well his black and grey ink holds up. Once it heals, it looks even better. I actually have a newer tattoo done by someone else that already looks older than tattoos Will did for me a while ago. That says a lot about the quality of his work. If you're looking for a talented tattoo artist with great technique, clean line work, and work that actually holds up over time, hit Will up. I definitely recommend him and will continue going back for more! IG: @ironwill_tattoos
