The Violet Hour

History

For many many years the street our Studio is on was zoned for Light Industry. We could operate an Artist's Studio, but could not be open to the public on a regular basis. That worked just fine for us. The majority of our work has always been Fine Art Private Commissions, Travel, Avante Garde Fashion ... quirky, playful, silly, ethereal, sensual, seductive and sexy. Our images inspire thought, introspection and fantasy. We'd do occasional shows and we rather liked the aura of 'secrecy' that surrounded us like an invisible force field from an old '50's sci-fi movie. But then Heroes moved from Wilshire to Santa Fe. The City re-zoned the street & our area was christened the SOCO district. We could be open to the public. This is our begining. And this is not your typical Art Gallery. The Art is not just on the walls; nor is the Art just that which you can See, Hear, Taste, Touch and Smell - it's more than that. Art is that which lies deep inside of you. Art is Perception.
