Opening Reception October 2nd 5–8 PM
Raw and Revealed
Art & Soul Gallery is pleased to present RAW AND REVEALED, a two-artist exhibition that brings together the porcelain sculptures of Joan Rosenberg-Dent and the abstract paintings of Sarita Reynolds in a striking dialogue of form, texture, and expression.
While working in distinct mediums, both artists investigate the balance between opposing forces—structure and spontaneity, fragility and strength, stillness and movement. Rosenberg-Dent’s sculptural forms, minimalist and refined, invite quiet reflection through their interaction with light and shadow. In contrast, Reynolds’ paintings pulse with energy, layering color, texture, and gesture in compositions that feel both intentional and instinctive.
Together, their work creates a shared space where contrast becomes connection—and where material and meaning are laid bare.
Art With Heart - October
Move with Purpose
Art has the power to inspire, connect, and give back. Each month at Art & Soul, we donate a portion of our proceeds to a charitable organization that reflects our current exhibition or the passions of the featured artist. It's our way of honoring the deeper connections between creativity, community, and compassion.
By supporting Art & Soul, you’re not only investing in meaningful art—you’re also helping to make a positive impact, one exhibition at a time.
This month, we support Move with Purpose, an organization dedicated to empowering marginalized communities through the arts, education, and safe, inclusive spaces. By using the arts to build confidence, leadership, resilience, and life skills in children, Move with Purpose helps create pathways to success.
Join us for a special fundraising evening on October 15th in support of Move with Purpose, featuring the premiere photography show by Lillian Hahn Shining, with Move with Purpose dancers as muses, adorned in stunning Merlette designs. Highlighting the evening, acclaimed local artist Pedro De La Cruz will create a live painting, to be auctioned at the end of the night. Tickets may be purchased here.
Wines with Soul — October
Miller Family Wines
At Art & Soul, we believe that great art deserves a perfect pairing. Each month, we feature a local wine that complements the spirit and style of our current exhibition.
Recognized as one of California’s most respected winegrowing families, the Miller Family is a fifth generation California farming family with agricultural roots on the Central Coast tracing back to 1871, when William and Francis Broome emigrated from England and began farming in Southern Ventura County. This legacy was carried on by their granddaughter, Elizabeth, who—alongside her husband, Robert Miller—continued the family tradition after their marriage in 1942, marking the beginning of the Miller Family’s stewardship in California farming.
In 1973, the Millers expanded their vision by establishing French Camp Vineyard in the Paso Robles Highlands. Named in honor of the Basque shepherds who once inhabited the area, French Camp was chosen for its unique terroir—characterized by dramatic day-to-night temperature swings, mineral-rich soils, and some of the region’s highest elevations.
Today, the 1,400-acre French Camp Vineyard remains a cornerstone of the Miller Family’s winemaking philosophy, providing exceptional fruit that serves as the foundation for crafting premium wines with integrity, character, and a true sense of place.
The Atelier Collective
Art & Soul is pleased to present four unique and inspiring creative spaces, telling the stories of individual artists within the collective spirit of the gallery. From familiar names to emerging talents, these intimate galleries deliver art with commanding presence. Come experience these galleries within the gallery—curated for closer connection to the art.
Inspired by repeated travels to Japan and a deep connection to its cultural and aesthetic traditions, Joan Rosenberg-Dent uses a porcelain medium to explore the themes of sakura blossoms, torri gates, kimonos, and the philosophy of wabi-sabi. Each piece reflects an appreciation for Japanese design and the balance of beauty, simplicity, and impermanence.
Born in Ravena, Italy, Luca honed his artistic talents in a city globally renowned for its early Christian and Byzantine mosaics. From this rich heritage, he draws inspiration and transforms its legacy into contemporary art, pushing the boundaries of mosaic technique toward a new visual language.
Based on California’s Central Coast, Nancy is a contemporary multimedia artist whose work blends bold geometric forms, vivid color, and layered textures to reflect life’s resilience and complexity. Nancy draws from both personal experience and professional insight to explore the connection between creativity and emotional well-being.
A Signature Member of the American Society of Marine Artists (ASMA), Brad brings his East Coast mastery to the California coastline with a series of plein air paintings that capture the region’s radiant light, lush gardens, and iconic architecture, capturing the light and depth of this beautiful place we call home.
