Woods Cove Gallery
A hidden gem in South Laguna, this gallery features critically-acclaimed and phenomenally accomplished artists. This gallery hosts an exhibition space, a working studio as well as an artist residency.
Established during a time when our art culture was struggling.
Wood's Cove Art Studio and Gallery was established in October of 2020. The gallery displays a variety of original fine art in a wide range of styles, prices, and sizes, and in mediums including oil on canvas, pen and ink, conte and pastel, acrylic, gouache, and watercolor. Whether collecting out of a desire to decorate, pure art enthusiasm, or serious investment, Woods Cove has an option for you.
Community around art.
One of the Wood's Cove Art Studio and Gallery's unique aspects is the studio workspace.
Here you will find visiting artists working and demonstrating their creative process, and available to discuss the process and the resulting art with you. This behind-the-scenes aspect gives an intimate, private, and unique opportunity to connect directly with the artist and provides emotional context to the works displayed.

“Always looking beyond the veil for the spiritual, forever seeking those moments of clarity where depth of feeling can be found. I don’t always fully understand what I might achieve each time I create but I’m always hoping to connect in some way with another’s psyche, to learn and grow within myself. Perhaps as artists, when connection's are made, we see a glimpse of who we are and what we need to do to breathe more life into our work.”

Dr. Hernandez works almost exclusively with wood, focusing on the curvilinear edges between positive and negative space and the lyrical lines of form. His works are figurative and, at times, androgynous to communicate his fundamental message of universality across time and cultures. When Mr. Hernandez uses highly reflective materials, a viewer can see their own reflection in the artwork.
