This was one of several galleries we visited in Laguna Beach, and found a good variety of interesting pieces. Greg Martin was very welcoming without pressure and so knowledgeable. We ultimately left with two beautiful pieces. We are so thankful to have found this gallery. Thank you!

The gallery is amazing and the proprietor is gracious and not some high pressure salesperson. The gallery has decades of having roots in the community supporting talented local artists. It's the real deal with real people.

Greg from Lu Martin acted as our art consultant for our home in Huntington Harbor. He brought two different beautiful Brooke Harker originals and placed them so we could view them in the space. We decided on Sun and Soul! Greg was patient and we didn't feel pressured or rushed. Overall a great experience.
