Art Opening
!Steve Mullen has always had a passion for the ocean and everything living in it.
After discharge from the US Navy, he began an apprenticeship as a carpenter.
A few years later he was accepted into the photography program at the Antonelli Institute of Art in Philadelphia where, upon graduation, was offered a staff position and soon became a department head.
He opened Steve Mullen Photography in the mid eighties. His artistic talents attracted many national accounts which won him numerous awards.
Some of the assignments involved shooting underwater in exotic locations where he got to experience being one with the sea.
In 2008 Steve revisited woodworking by designing and building hand drums which evolved to leading workshops with the Wanderlust Music and Yoga Festivals.
He then combined his artistic talents and woodworking skills with his greatest love, the ocean.
His current work represents that passion.Steve is an avid surfer, scuba diver, windsurfer, and kayaker living on Anastasia Island, Florida.

“Photography is a tool that I use to breach borders, no regimes, no walls, no corruption politicians. As long as I can walk and see I will photograph mankind. This is my gift to future generations.”
Sea Spirits Gallery & Gifts is excited to feature the alluring works of artist Margaret Juul. Join us this Friday for First Friday Art Walk, February 7th, 5-9pm. Enjoy the artist’s original paintings and lithographs in addition to a stunning gallery of sea-inspired treasures!
Margaret Juul is a Florida based painter with a keen eye for design. She is interested in the movement quality of the ocean, depicted in a way that marries abstraction and representation. From underwater perspectives to waves crashing on the water’s surface, her paintings investigate the kinetic energy of the sea.
