Encinitas, CA (PRWEB) March 17, 2006

Nadine Baurin along with fellow artist Sandra Haasis, recently opened the Red Door Fine Art Gallery at 90 D North HWY 101 (on ‘A’ Street) in Encinitas, California.

Baurin and Haasis plan to celebrate the opening with two receptions. The first one, an invitation-only event, will be held on March 24th. Invited guests consist of current and prospective collectors of Baurin and Haasis' art as well as local public figures. The second reception, open to the public, will be held March 25 from 2-5pm.

"The opening of this little gallery is just the beginning," says Nadine. "We have big plans for the future." The gallery includes Baurin's own creations as well as paintings by art colleague, Haasis. The gallery will occasionally also feature artwork by local San Diego artists. "From time to time we will have guest artists showcase their work alongside ours," says Baurin. "It is our hope that the gallery will grow into a space were groups of artists can display their works," adds Sandra. Baurin and Haasis work daily from their new studio in the gallery. The gallery is open by appointment.
