ArtPark

Gallery SOHO

Gallery SOHO’s new venture is a Sunday morning art show on the SOHO patio as well as on our sidewalk park area. Come and enjoy the artwork of local artists. There may be some demonstrations as well. So plan a trip to the Harvard Street Farmers’ Market and take in our ArtPark too. Sunday, September 21, Gallery SOHO hosted its first ArtPark event from 10am-1pm, This new exhibit will feature a variety of artists twice monthly on the 2nd and 4th Sundays. Sunday, December 14, from 10am - 2pm we’re featuring Forest Hill, Mary-Linda Piercy and Don Suh.

Forest Hill was born and raised California. His canvas is a vibrant tapestry of landscapes, seascapes, and moments that ignite his imagination. His art, a harmonious blend of realism and impressionism, is brought to life through the rich textures of oil and pastel mediums.

As a boy, Forest’s passion for art was evident. Classroom pencils and papers transformed into canvases for his sketches. His teenage years were spent under the the tutelage of professional artists and art majors from the local area. The high desert’s stark beauty and Santa Barbara’s coastal charm served as the backdrop for Forest’s early artistic endeavors.

From the cozy confines of his studio in his ranch-style home in Ontario, California, he crafts pieces that resonate with art enthusiasts. His mission is to offer art lovers the joy of owning beautifully crafted, reasonably priced artworks.

Mary-Linda Piercy has been a local Claremont artist and designer for over 20 years. At my small shop in Harvard Square I sold my own art and handcrafted jewelry. After returning to school for fine arts, I became an Art Curator and Humanities tutor. As a native Southern Californian, I feel my art reflects much of our sunny state’s beauty and culture. My goal is to inspire joy and happiness through art.

Don Suh is an amateur photographer, and photography is one of his favorite hobbies. He mostly takes photos while traveling, and many of them are in black and white. He enjoys capturing both landscapes and portraits.
