Studio Notes: 

In June of 2021, history was made as Hermosa Beach painted one of its lifeguards in the vibrant hues of the rainbow, a powerful symbol of LGBTQ pride and inclusion. Now, this momentous occasion is immortalized in paint, a testament to the city's commitment to embracing all its residents, regardless of who they love or how they identify.

As your eyes dive in the colors of the rainbow cascading across the canvas, you're enveloped in a sense of joy and acceptance. Against the backdrop of the iconic Hermosa Beach shoreline, the lifeguard stands tall and proud, a beacon of hope and solidarity for the diverse community that calls this place home.

But this painting isn't just about pride—it's about love. Love for California, with its sun-kissed shores and endless blue skies.

Let this painting be a reminder that love knows no boundaries, and that together, we can create a world where everyone is celebrated for exactly who they are. Thank you for joining in this celebration, and may this painting fill your heart with pride and joy. Enjoy the moment!
