Fresh on the walls at Sandstone Gallery: four works by ISABELLE ALESSANDRA, united by a palette of soft greens, celadon, warm gold, and creamy whites. Together, they evoke the feeling of bringing the outdoors in—sunlit gardens, shifting light, open air, and the quiet rhythms of nature distilled into contemporary abstraction.

Isabelle’s distinctive visual language balances geometry with organic forms, creating compositions that feel alive and joyful. Painted on cradled basswood panels, each of these pieces invite the eye to wander, discovering new relationships between shape, color, and space with each viewing.

Swipe to see closer views and dimensions of each work, and imagine how these luminous pieces might live in your home or collection. For pricing and availability, please send us a message or email the gallery directly.

We are proud to always have a collection of Isabelle’s work on view at Sandstone Gallery. This summer, visitors to Southern California can also find a collection of her work on view at the Ritz Carlton in Laguna Niguel and in the prestigious juried Festival of Arts in Laguna Beach. Isabelle is one of 12 of our 19 Resident Artists who have exhibited in the Festival of Arts over multiple years—a reflection of the exceptional caliber of artists represented by the gallery.

Sandstone Gallery is open daily from 11 AM to 5 PM. We’re also open on Thursdays from 6 PM -9 PM for First Thursday ArtWalk (tomorrow, June 4). Visit us on Laguna Beach’s historic Gallery Row and experience these works in person. ✨

Congratulations to Sandstone Gallery’s Resident Artists, Lance Carlson (currently featured in the gallery) and RoseMarie Davio, on having work accepted into the 42nd Irvine Annual at the Irvine Fine Arts Center.

Opening July 11, this highly recognized juried exhibition showcases outstanding work by California artists working across a wide range of visual media. What makes acceptance into the Irvine Annual especially meaningful is its long history and highly competitive selection process. Since 1983, the exhibition has served as a survey of contemporary art in California, with submissions reviewed by respected guest jurors drawn from museums, galleries, and arts organizations. The exhibition highlights the diversity, innovation, and creative excellence of artists working throughout the state.

We are proud to see Lance and RoseMarie’s work included in this year’s exhibition and honored to represent their work in Sandstone Gallery.

The 42nd Irvine Annual will be on view July 11–September 5, with a free opening reception on July 11 from 2–4 p.m. at the Irvine Fine Arts Center.

Please join us in congratulating Lance and RoseMarie on this well-deserved accomplishment. 🎉

Sandstone Gallery is pleased to celebrate the opening of two new featured exhibitions.

Known for his dynamic abstract paintings, LANCE CARLSON creates works that balance intention and instinct through layered color, texture, line, and gesture. Installed throughout the gallery’s lower floor and featured prominently in our front windows, the exhibition offers a sweeping look at Lance’s latest work and the energy that defines his practice. Running through August 3.

Our Guest Artist exhibition by GRETCHEN BECK draws connections between the luminous landscapes of Niger, West Africa, and Laguna Beach, California, through paintings, drawings, collage, and mixed media. Blending decades of artistic exploration with personal experience as a former Peace Corps volunteer in Niger, Gretchen creates lyrical abstractions that evoke peace, harmony, and reflection. Gretchen’s exhibition will be on view in our Skylight Room from June 2–29.

Join us tonight from 6–9 PM to meet both artists and experience these exhibitions alongside our resident artists' work. Enjoy the evening as part of Laguna Beach’s First Thursday Art Walk—explore neighboring galleries and restaurants, and take advantage of free admission at the Laguna Art Museum just across the street.

If you can’t join us tonight, Sandstone Gallery is open daily from 11 AM to 5 PM and by appointment.

Laabu Kan Ga Borey — “the loveliest of lands.”

Gretchen Beck’s upcoming Guest Artist exhibition explores the shared beauty of Niger, West Africa, and Laguna Beach, California — landscapes united by radiant light, vibrant color, and trees reaching toward expansive skies. Through paintings, drawings, collage, and mixed media, Gretchen creates lyrical abstractions that evoke peace, harmony, and reflection.

A former Peace Corps volunteer in Niger and longtime arts educator, Gretchen brings decades of artistic research and exhibition experience to this deeply personal body of work.

This exciting exhibition runs in our Skylight Room from June 2 through June 29. Join us for Opening Night on Thursday, June 4, from 6–9 pm, and meet Gretchen in person. The evening corresponds with Laguna Beach’s First Thursday Art Walk, where all the galleries and restaurants surrounding us are open for your enjoyment!

Check out more of Gretchen’s dynamic work on our website (link@from our bio), and on www.gretchenbeck.com

LAWRENCE MCADAMS’ Skyward explores the transcendent power of music through a figure suspended between earth and air.

With her eyes closed and viola lifted upward, the musician appears carried by something beyond performance alone — a quiet surrender to movement, sound, and emotion. The sweeping dress and luminous sky create a sense of weightlessness, as though music itself is guiding the ascent.

The work was inspired by concert violist and reflects both the discipline and liberation found in mastery of an instrument.

MONIQUE STRAUB’s “contemporary bohemian” paintings balance refinement with spontaneity, transforming landscape into vibrant, emotionally charged compositions.

Working in oil on canvas, Monique begins with her own photographic imagery, then reimagines it through luminous color, expressive brushwork, and a deeply personal lens. Rooted in traditional methods yet unmistakably contemporary, her work brings an energetic, sophisticated presence to any space.

Shown here is
