DAVE HOBRECHT, WORLD-RENOWNED BLACK & WHITE SPORTS ARTIST
Dave Hobrecht is a sports enthusiast whose life was changed at age 13 when he was hit by a car. Upon waking up in a hospital bed two weeks later, Hobrecht learned he would no longer have the opportunity to fulfill his dreams as an athlete. With both legs shattered and his goals of athletic success crushed too, he chose instead to refocus his efforts toward documenting sport through art.
Over the next 18 months, Hobrecht learned that his breaks from physical therapy empowered him to create for himself a new canvas on life. He sketched image after image from his favorite sports magazines, baseball cards, newspapers and books. Ultimately, after coming home to his family and friends, it became apparent that this young artist had found a new way to participate in the sports he loved so much growing up.
Later, Hobrecht graduated from the prestigious Marshall School of Business at the University of Southern California, and after several years working in his family's business, he began his professional art career.
Charcoal and Pastel Paintings
Hobrecht is collected by art patrons around the world and is well-known for his classic yet innovative black and white sports paintings. Hobrecht’s choice of dramatic sports subjects, masterful technique, as well as the unique dry brush application method and signature charcoal and pastel medium that he developed and perfected, all give his art an astonishing level of detail, movement and realism that are unparalleled in the world of sports art.
Dave’s classic black and white paintings give his images a sense of timelessness - a brief moment of sporting achievement captured forever in paper, charcoal and pastel. His angles and composition allow the viewer to experience that moment and relive the exhilaration with each glance.

the GARAGE collective
website: shopgaragecollectivelaguna.com
The GARAGE collective started up as a co-op where other female entrepreneurs shared in the expense and demands of running a retail store. We also shared information, which is how I was able to get where I am today. Creating community right now is necessary more than ever. It creates a sense of unity and a platform to share information and collaborate with other local companies so that we can strive during these hard times instead of struggle. We all have skills and talents that we can share with each other and our customers would appreciate the simplicity of all of our offerings in one place so that they can shelter in home and focus on what’s important.

I believe in well trained dogs and equally well trained owners, to experience great behavior and close bonds between them. Through consistency, persistence and repetition, along with positive reinforcement, we can work together to achieve these goals.
My training philosophy is simple…training methods are based on motivational principles. My goal is to motivate the dog to learn and perform, to build confidence in both the dog and handler, through success with humane, consistent, interactive training.
Why Hire A Dog Trainer?
Dog Training has evolved over the past decade. Even if your current dog, is not your first dog, training techniques and methods have changed drastically and become vastly improved.
A great dog trainer will teach you how to properly time dog training cue's, marking the cue's, and rewarding training cue's in a timely and consistent manner, which will excite the dogs learning and mastering of cue's. By hiring a great dog trainer, you can quickly and effectively communicate with your dog through consistently, persistance, and repetition, setting your dog up of immediate success.
