The Gathering of Graces, Quarter Life
By Richard MacDonald
Located in Laguna Beach, CA
Greek mythology records the Three Graces, considered the fairest daughters of Zeus and Eurynome, as representatives of the blessings of nature. Followers believed that each spring, their fertility dance caused seeds to sprout and flowers to bloom. On another creative level, the young goddesses were believed to influence artistic achievement. While Boticelli’s expression of the soft, linear forms inherent in the Three Graces influenced the rebirth of classical mythology, Richard MacDonald is inspired to foster the renaissance of figurative art with his own interpretation of “grace.” Employing the classical tradition of undulating lines, precise contour and soft, fair forms, MacDonald created first his masterpiece “The Three Graces” followed by an exploration into the personae of each of the three sisters, Agalia, Euphrosyne and Thalia. In "The Gathering of the Graces...

Study for the Rose, Half Life
By Richard MacDonald
Located in Laguna Beach, CA
“Study for the Rose, Half Life” draws on Richard MacDonald’s highly developed sensitivity for the experience of the dancer, and displays all the quiet beauty of a private moment of reflection. In half-life size the supple and delicate form of the ballerina has real substance—an almost-breathing presence that immediately draws us to wonder at the thoughts of the ballerina toying with the ribbon on her shoe. Her youth and preoccupation give a sense of life and warmth to the sculpture; the beautiful line of her arm draped over the bar is a study in the effortless grace of the well-trained dancer. Her soft cheek rests on her shoulder, and we feel the tenderness of her childish daydream—yet she holds the posture of an accomplished professional. A study in contrasts, this piece has the timeless appeal associated with the ballet works by Degas, with the unmistakable character that can only be attributed to Richard MacDonald himself.

New Dawn
By Hunt Slonem
Located in Laguna Beach, CA
A wonderful composition of one of Slonem's most iconic subjects, Bunnies. This piece depicts the whimsical bunny in hand-blown glass. Inspired by nature and a genuine love for animals, Slonem's glass works encompass unique inspirations drawn from the world. While viewing this piece in person, it is as if we are surrounded by elegance effortlessly, enchanted with the charm of the Rabbit which symbolizes good fortune. This sculpture invites us to celebrate nature and the simplicity of form from the inspiring world of the Rabbit. The artist's signature is etched in glass. In a natural expansion of his artistic vocabulary, Slonem has evolved his famous bunnies into the dynamic medium of glass with the same quick gestural dance of his paint brush marks on canvas.
