Description

This photograph was just selected to be on exhibit in the Irvine Fine Art Juried Exhibition. Details in my 'Events' & 'Press' tabs. It was taken of the Laguna Lifeguard Station while a smoking local-looking man crosses the street. Laguna Beach is an affluent seaside resort city and artist community located in southern Orange County, California, United States. Laguna Beach is the third oldest city in Orange County. In the early 1920s the area was discovered by a group of landscape painters who laid the foundation of the art community which is still thriving to this day. Subsequently, various groups have "discovered" Laguna Beach and added incrementally to the town's diversity. Many wealthy and progressive people have made Laguna Beach their home and added to the local culture. It has been referred to to ada "weary rover's dream". The region originally was known to the Spanish as "La Ca� de Las Lagunas", which means "The Canyon of the Small Lakes", in reference to two lakes found near the head of Laguna Canyon. In confusion with the word "Lagoon", however, Laguna Beach was nearly misnamed "Lagoona" by the State of California.
