Barbara Blair from Oceanside, a former interior designer with a long-term interest in wellness and the effect that the built environment has on people, my artistic focus is in creating images that provide the viewer with an escape from the stresses of everyday life, and that promote peace of mind.  Artwork that is joyful, soothing, calming or inspiring has a healing value, and is very much needed in today's stressful world.  Island hopping by Barbara Blair

Terry Oshrin a mosaic artist from Encinitas has a wonderful exhibit of mosaic “geckos “for sale. I "love" doing mosaics and it has become my passion, but don't place me in one category because custom lamps, resin tables, geckos and more have now peaked my interest. Who knows what I will do tomorrow?

Art will remain for the duration of Thursdays on the Coast, The Experience.  Artists will be holding receptions monthly and art demonstrations.
