The Gallery Huntington Beach has
experienced a few transformations during
its several years in existence at the
Hyatt Huntington Beach Resort & Spa.
Launched in 2003 in a stand alone
building at the then-new hotel, it began
featuring the works of Todd White, known
for his Rat Pack caricatures.
Another popular artist seen in the photo
above is Toreen West. Following in the
footstep of her mother, West has met
commercial success both for her original
creations and for her consignment
artwork, often painting children
at the beach in light colored, flowing
outfits. The somewhat romanticized
vision captures the flavor of the beach
experience and innocence of the curious,
youthful soul.
Then came Dean (pictured upper left)
Dean Torrence is a multi-talented
individual with both success in the
musical arena as part of the
60's band
"Jan & Dean." He continues to travel the
world performing the hits from that era
today. But during his formidable years,
Dean Torrence also worked as a graphic
artist. His talent and keen eye has
resulted in works that have graced many
famous album covers as well as provided
beautiful artwork that the public can
purchase. His themes are often
contemporary and surround the beach
lifestyle, music and surfing.
Torrence has been featured at the Hyatt's
unique
Gallery. He is but one of the
talented and interesting artists you may
have the opportunity meet when visiting
Huntington Beach.
