Gabrielle Lessard
I make sterling and fine silver jewelry using traditional fabrication techniques. I love the immediacy and permanence of silver – I can use simple tools like hammers to transform a plain sheet of metal into an object with form and volume, irreversibly changing its nature.
I have been working in silver for over 10 years and I’m constantly learning. Work with metal is exacting - and the level of focus required enables me to lose myself in the work. People often comment on how different my work with metal is from my ‘day job’ as a lawyer, but both involve a fair amount of problem solving.
My designs typically incorporate texture, asymmetry, and botanical elements. I strive to create work that clients will enjoy for many years and regard as an expression of their own aesthetic.

Soo Jin King

Daniel Low
I grew up in Lancaster, California. I spent my time playing in the surrounding desert and loving the empty beauty the landscape provides. Accented by the most amazingly colorful sunsets and sunrises.
I am currently working as a studio lighting technician for IATSE local 728. I enjoy getting out to try and capture the wonder and splendor I feel every time I go out in mother nature.

Caleb Martin Ballard
Greetings! I have a LOT of colorful, emotive expressionist art in all sizes and at all prices. Find me at the Elysian Theater...Caleb Ballard is an American artist, writer and musician. A native Kentuckian who has lived in Los Angeles since 1986, Caleb is strongly influenced by Russian expressionism, magic realism, constructionism, American folk art, religious iconography, and the Joy of Cooking.
He paints in loose brushstrokes and eschews detail in favor of suggestive juxtaposition, with disparate visual narratives interleaving. Many suggest the aftermath of a high impact event, though it’s never clear whether the disturbance occurred in the material realm or in some ethereum. He took up painting 4 years ago and is preoccupied with the relationship between trauma and wonder.
