LPAPA is presenting its juried art shows through the online LPAPA Virtual Gallery and DailyBrushworks in response to the restrictions imposed by the pandemic. We will return to a physical show at our “LPAPA in Residence” home at the Forest & Ocean Gallery in the heart of Laguna’s art district as soon as it is deemed feasible to do so, however, we plan to continue to virtually enhance our Gallery Shows. Proceeds from the sale of artwork benefits the artists and nonprofit LPAPA.

LPAPA’s mission is dedicated to painting the landscape, preserving Laguna’s artistic legacy and promoting the plein air painting tradition. LPAPA strives to enhance the livelihood of its artist members and inspire the next generation of plein air painters!

Click to read: LPAPA Plein Talk with Carolyn Hesse-Low

Nationally recognized artist Carolyn Hesse-Low graduated from University of California and continued her training at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. In the style of the early California Impressionists, her landscapes, figures and marine subjects capture the changing mood and rugged beauty of what she sees. “I am attracted to the feeling that a scene offers. What appeals to me is a subject that has depth to explore, one that can reveal the feelings within ourselves”.
