Ocean Art

A new art gallery/studio has opened in town: the Sarah O’Connor Art Gallery at the Lemon Tree complex overlooking Del Mar’s Civic Center.  Sarah works in her studio and in plein aire on canvas, Styrofoam, wood—and repurposed surfboards using various mediums—oil, acrylic, and resin. A surfer and scuba diver, Sarah is in the ocean waters, above and below, where she absorbs and interprets the images she sees as well as our local land sites into her creative visions. Her formal training was at the University of Notre Dame, and she has taught art at many San Diego schools, including Sage Canyon, Ocean Air, and Canyon Crest Academy. Visit the gallery Monday, Tuesday, and Saturday, 11-4:00 PM, and at Sarah’s sunset “golden hour” open gallery times, 3:45-5:00 PM on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of the month. For additional open hours, check the website or call for an appointment. 1049 Camino Del Mar, Ste E, 858-774-1966. SarahOConnorArt.com.
