La Jolla Fine Art Galleries On Prospect | Photography & Art
For a number of years now I have been looking for the perfect place to open a fine art photography gallery. One of the places at the top of my list has always been the beautiful La Jolla, California. The La Jolla area is beautiful for many reasons and on Prospect St you can find some of the worlds top fine art photography, painting and sculpture galleries including Lik Fine Art, Martin Lawrence Galleries, National Geographic Fine Art and Mangelsen Images of Nature Gallery.
Many collectors of my work over the years asked me to travel to La Jolla to photograph the Scripps Pier, a San Diego and La Jolla icon. When I visited this beautiful beach town with my family I spent mornings and evenings at the pier and browsed the high end shopping La Jolla offers during the day. The best art and photography galleries, restaurants and general shopping was found on Prospect. Soon after visiting, the nation was struck by Covid 19, placing my dreams of a gallery on hold. The collection of images I captured of the pier during my time there have been highly received by my collectors both new and old. Once the nation deals with this virus and returns to normal, I hope to return to La Jolla to continue my search.
Here are the images of the pier that have been added to myLimited Edition collection, one of which, in just 6 months, is already 30% sold out. Please have a look at the rest of my nature and landscape photography by searching my online galleries. Thank you for your interest in my work and La Jolla art!
