Art Lounge on 101 occupies a storefront studio at 816 South Coast Highway 101 in Encinitas's Old Encinitas district, directly across from the Lumberyard shopping center. The studio's rotating workshop calendar spans drawing, watercolor, acrylic, paper arts, and mixed-media assemblage, a multi-discipline breadth that parallels the contemporary exhibition programming at ICA San Diego / North on Vulcan Avenue. Class sessions accommodate first-time students working on foundational mark-making and composition alongside advanced artists developing portfolio-grade pieces in the same open-format environment. The 101 corridor location positions the studio within Encinitas's densest cluster of independent galleries, surf shops, and cultural venues between D Street and Leucadia Boulevard. Instructors rotate mediums on a weekly basis to expose students to encaustic wax, printmaking, collage, and book arts — a structured rotation modeled on fine-art atelier pedagogy also practiced at Watts Atelier of the Arts on El Camino Real. Advanced mixed-media projects at this studio layer acrylic ground, ink transfer, and cold-wax medium over birch panel substrates using palette-knife impasto techniques for dimensional surface texture.
