Ojai Studio Artists
Nationally known artists such as Theodore T. Gall, Joseph Sohm, Sherry Saxe Loehr, Jeff Mann, Carol Shaw-Sutton and Ingrid Boulting (model and ballerina) and more have been featured in publications such as Southwest Art, The Artists Magazine, National Geographic, The New York Times and more. Their work is collected by President Clinton, McDonald’s Corporation, Standard Oil and Walt Disney Productions. Their work is in galleries throughout the country and are highly collected. In addition, Mann worked for LucasFilms Industrial Light & Magic on such films as ET, Back to the Future 1 & 2, Forest Gump, Star Wars and ultimately became the Vice President of Creative Operations. However, the studio tour features many artists that might not be on the national stage, but are nonetheless creative, talented, energetic. They are artistic innovators in their own right. All of the artists’ studios are an extension of their own personality. Whether they are intricate and methodical or exuberant and messy, there is something for everyone to see.
The organization’s mission is to encourage interest and excellence in the arts through organizing the annual Ojai Studio Tour and other studio events; to raise funds for scholarships; to facilitate the exchange of information and promote art education through community outreach. Ojai Studio Artists is a California 501 (c)(3) nonprofit corporation focused on arts education in the visual arts. For more information visit http://www.ojaistudioartists.org
