NEW HAPPENINGS AT THE STORE
Welcome Our New Makers!

DS Hobbs Artistic Impressions
Deborah of DS Hobbs Artistic Impressions is a talented artist who has been selling her work in galleries across California since 1989. While she is well-known for oil painting and photography, she also creates beautiful painted furniture, prints, and beaded jewelry.
We’re excited to showcase Deborah’s SLO Back Roads collection right here in the store!
This series was inspired by Deborah’s five years spent exploring San Luis Obispo in her 1968 VW dune buggy. She used her photography from those adventures to create the beautiful art pieces now available on our shelves!
March 6th Art After Dark “Artist Showcase”

CMW Fine Arts
Christy of CMW Fine Arts creates whimsical acrylic paintings, often incorporating an abundance of vibrant colors, movement and emotion. Her artistic inspiration often comes from her imagination as well as the world around her. Adding a unique touch to an otherwise ordinary subject warms her heart and further ignites her passion to continue creating.
Join us on March 6th from 5-8PM for Art After Dark to meet our featured artist! Christy’s collection will be on display throughout the rest of the month.
