Artists Julie Brookman and Danielle Eubank will be in attendance as well as the campaign manager for the Northern Chumash Tribal Organization. She will be able to answer any questions, people might have about the Chumash Marine Sanctuary.
Danielle Eubank is an American oil painter and expedition artist, known for her paintings of bodies of water, as well as One Artist Five Oceans, in which she sailed and painted all of the world’s oceans to raise awareness about climate change. All her artwork is done in an environmentally responsible manner, with high quality environmentally friendly materials. Eubank sailed over 30,000 miles, painting more than 200 bodies of water across 22 countries. She lives in Los Angeles, CA.
Born in California, Julie Brookman has spent her life by the sea. She is best known for her encaustic paintings, where through hot wax and pigment she has found a way to capture the myriad faces and moods of the sea in a way that makes time stand still and highlights a unique confluence of elemental chaos. She focuses on layering, transparency, and repetition in movement to allow the painting to form intuitively and of their own volition. She says, “My latest series, Saudade, is an exploration of the indefinite and uncapturable. I’ve long been drawn to the sea. It is permanent but always changing. Never the same, but always there. The act of seeing the sea is the act of remembering it for what it was.”
