Jeremy Evans
I am an artist living here in OB with my partner Diana. We are the owners of OBMG and the b Gallery in the Newport Avenue Mall. Art is a passion and has a purpose. The passion comes from the experience of life itself. The purpose can be many things, but one of the primary purposes of my art is to supply people with a memory of their visit to our community. A lot of my artwork ends up in the hands of tourists and ultimately on the walls of their homes. I imagine that years may pass and children and grandchildren may see these images. For some, it may be the memory of the trip to Ocean Beach, for others the memory of their parent's or grandparent's homes. These are special and important memories and I am honored to be the artist that brought that memory into their home.

Tessa Elisabeth
I am a Magical/Fantasy style Artist based out of Ocean Beach.
My main medium is Acrylics, but I have been recently taking up mixing with oils and digital as well.
I have done a few murals around San Diego, and love teaching Acrylic Workshops and after-school art classes.
I believe an image holds the power to shift the perception of an individual, therefore having a knock-on effect on the outer manifestation of the collective consciousness.
