Channel Rd. in Santa Monica Canyon. A reception for the artist will be held on Saturday, August 14 from 5 to 8 p.m. The public is invited. For the past two decades, Sugarman has been painting his beloved Pacific Ocean from the vantage point of a man who has lived most of his life close to the beach, including Santa Monica Canyon and on a sailboat in Marina del Rey. Sugarman is a professional photographer with a Ph.D. in sociology.’ His publications include ‘God Be With You: War in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina’; ‘Kashmir: Paradise Lost’; ‘Storm over Cuba’; ‘War Above the Clouds: Siachen Glacier’; and ‘Speak Palestine, Speak Again.’
