Meanwhile\, artist David Valvoda captures unique perspectives of the everyday world through photography\, weaving disparate images into captivating compositions. \nKate Leachman explores memory and emotion through oil paintings on canvas and wood\, reimagining personal photos and nature in vibrant colors. Their smaller\, instinctive creations\, known as “Musings\,” provide a delightful escape into the joy of the creative process. Stephanie Kerley Schwartz\, a Los Angeles-based set and costume designer\, combines theater and art in the ongoing project Hypothetical Scenarios\, celebrating the tactile experience of creating with found materials. Finally\, Toby Pederson\, with an illustrious 20-year career as a commercial photographer\, skillfully illuminates the overlooked and mundane\, revealing the beauty in simplicity. \nHelms Studio Series is your invitation to explore these unique artistic journeys and witness the world through their creative lenses. \nFree \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nChris Hero\nHelms Studio Series presents Chris Hero\, a versatile Los Angeles-based painter with a unique journey through various professions. His current work\, born from two decades of life drawing at Studio II\, involves layering history and surface on salvaged paper. Hero’s spontaneous\, intuitive art uses acrylics\, inks\, and gouache\, with most pieces completed in under half an hour during sessions with life-drawing models. \n\n \n \n \n \n \nStephanie Kerley Schwartz\nHelms Studio Series presents Hypothetical Scenarios\, works created by Stephanie Kerley Schwartz\, an Los Angeles based set and costume designer working with theaters\, installation artists and painters. Her design work has been seen on stages across Southern California as well as in Portland\, Oregon and Ford’s Theatre in Washington\, DC. \nHypothetical Scenarios is an ongoing project that combines Stephanie’s theater and art practice\, along with her passion for creating interactive environments with found and collected materials. Expanding the relationship between objects and materials fascinates her — exploring the tactile experience of making things\, and the transposed feelings that arise from the combinations. By juxtaposing materials such as raw rope and refined colorful silk\, or discarded rusty metal and precious gold leaf\, her work chases beauty using tactile craft\, finding meaning in the juxtaposition of objects and materials that pass through her hands\, relieving them from the duty of practicality. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nKate Leachman\nHelms Studio Series presents Kate Leachman\, a native of Los Angeles\, currently working in Studio II\, Culver City. Kate’s current work centers around people\, places and objects integral to her life. Paintings in oil on canvas or wood are inspired by memories. Resourcing personal photos\, nature and imagination\, she recreates her memory of the subject in vibrant color. Kate’s artistic practice also includes making small mixed media works. Constructed on a variety of paper\, canvas or board\, she explores combinations of wet and dry media. These are instinctive creations she calls “Musings.” A daily practice\, working on the Musings is a liberation from the inherent problem-solving that comes with large paintings and allows Kate to relax into the pure joy of the creative process. \n\n \n \n \n \n \nToby Pederson\nA graduate of Art Center College of Design\, Toby Pederson\, boasts an impressive 20-year career as a commercial photographer. His collaborative and skilled approach has graced major advertising campaigns\, showcasing his refined style rich in subtlety and detail\, particularly emphasizing lighting. Beyond commercial work\, Toby’s personal still-life photography delves into the often overlooked or mundane\, contrasting with today’s flashy tech-driven world. Armed with extensive photography expertise\, he skillfully highlights and captures simple subjects like construction materials\, insects\, paint\, or even a humble bubble in water. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nDavid Valvoda\nDavid Valvoda is a local photographer and artist who hails originally from Cleveland\, OH. David’s photography focuses on the world around us as seen through unique perspectives\, often seeing the dramatic geometry in our everyday surroundings as well as putting disparate images together to create a unique image.

Her own vision echoing with the universal. Attempting to connect a disrupted narrative and depict the contradictions of a harmonious yet chaotic new world. \nKaoru Mansour’s delicate\, hyper-realistic\, organisms are suspended in planes of linear design and boundless space. We are given a macrocosmic and microscopic view simultaneously. \nSinan Revell reconfigures the works of male\, surrealist masters collaging female silhouettes on cut-out textures and landscapes. Her Nature Morte installation mixes ceramic with found seed pods. Pink bullets\, S&M postures and neon signage portray a glimpse in to the dystopian\nfuture. \nMika Revellʼs work confronts the viewer with an electrifying shock.
