BMW i8 Electric Sports Car and Custom Set of Louis ...

$177,500.00

THE MOST PROGRESSIVE SPORTS CAR.

The BMW i8.

The Pure Impulse full equipment package.

Turns heads. Changes minds.
With the plug-in hybrid BMW i8, you’ll experience the power of a TwinPower Turbo engine and the efficiency of an all-electric motor for an exhilarating driving experience that’s every bit BMW. This is no ordinary sports car. This is the first-ever BMW i8. The BMW i8 is no ordinary sports car. It’s an icon of progress — an extraordinary evolution of The Ultimate Driving Machine^®. As a revolutionary plug-in hybrid, this sports car uses eDrive technology to combine the efficiency of an all-electric motor and the power of a TwinPower Turbo engine for an exhilarating driving experience that’s every bit BMW. At first glance, the BMW i8 comes across as a beautifully designed sports car. But it’s far more than that. Aerodynamics plays a key role in the design of the BMW i8, with each detail working toward channeling airflow for greater efficiency. Additionally, the streamflow design of the vehicle’s rear wing helps provide significant downforce all the way up to the electronically-limited top speed of 155 mph. When a car looks this fast, it better live up to its appearance. The BMW i8 does just that, with help from its powerful, yet efficient TwinPower Turbo 3-cylinder combustion engine and its innovative electric motor. Together, these two engines work in tandem for uninterrupted acceleration from a standstill with a total system output of 420 lb-ft of torque and 357 horsepower Value: $150,500.

Artist Kevin McHugh’s Shark Sculpture

$10,000.00

Artist Kevin McHugh's Crystal Shark Table Sculpture, hand - encrusted with over 10,000 Swarovski crystals . Kevin McHugh celebrates the exquisite contours of this beautiful Apex - Predator, while examining our complicated relationship with them. Shark statue is 10" high 12" length It's not often that... The bold and the beautiful of culture can blend with that of nature. But in the art and life of McHugh NYC founder Kevin McHugh, they're meant to be together. "My love affair with New York City, coupled with my admiration and respect for the majesty of sailfish, was really what sparked me to embark on this project," Kevin says. Traveling between the worlds of NY nightlife, fashion, and music, Kevin became a fixture of them all, as a career manager for music and visual artists. He crossed the globe promoting their diverse projects and hosting premier events, from intimate gatherings in Denver to multi-thousand-person concerts in Spain. His travels sharpened his appreciation for artistic expression, and for distinctive and unique objects of beauty. It was when he became intrigued by the elegant sailfish that the novice artist embarked on his own visual venture. "The more I researched these fish and other billfish like Marlin, the more I wanted to showcase them, and bring attention to their plight of being overfished and possibly brought to the verge of extinction," he says. Merging his interest in the fish and his aesthetic inspirations, Kevin launched a boutique business creating fiberglass renditions of the creatures, adorned with different materials: everything from iridescent mother of pearl and brilliant Swarovski crystals to leather and lacquer. The pieces are meant to change the way people perceive the notion of "trophy fish" by transforming them into stunning works of art. Kevin's exquisite pieces have been sought after by an exclusive audience to date. He counts Patricia Field and Wendy Williams among his many clients. Miami's affluent Ocean Drive magazine recently celebrated his art by featuring a McHugh fish in their Art Basel/Holiday Gift Guide Issue. Value: $10,000. Generously donated by the artist

Beautiful Ocean Scape Oil Painting by Todd Kenyon

$7,500.00

Beautiful Oceanscape Oil Painting by Todd Kenyon He doesn’t surf. He doesn’t swim. He’s terrified of sharks. Not what you’d expect from Laguna Beach artist and gallery owner Todd Kenyon, who’s known for his large-scale ocean scapes that are so realistic, they often are mistaken for photographs. Moving to Southern California in 1998 from the East Coast, Todd Kenyon became inspired to create a body of work that captures the unique beauty of the Laguna Beach coastline. Todd’s paintings can be seen year-round at his studio connected to the purelagunabeach gallery. Todd’s work captures the multifaceted spirit of the ocean. Step back and the viewer is taken in by the force of the crashing surf, a step closer shifts the focus to subtle color fields that mimic the reflective quality of light against sand and water. Painting shown is an example of Todd work, not auction item. The winner will be able to commission an original oil painting by Todd Kenyon! Todd will work personally with the winning bidder in developing a custom modern seascape painting to be completed near the Thanksgiving holiday. His work is well known on the west coast and collected nationally and internationally. Currently, he is exclusively represented by Gallery Henoch in NYC. His studio is visible on PCH in Laguna Beach where he will develop the piece for the lucky bidder. This is a unique opportunity to obtain one of Todd's highly sought after paintings, as he is usually booked for commissions and sold out 4-6 months in advance.

Artist Kevin McHugh’s Pucci Inspired Pair of Baby Turtle Sculptures

$5,000.00

Artist Kevin McHugh's Pucci-inspired baby Sea Turtles: Handpainted fiberglass bodies encrusted by hand with over 3,500 Swarovski Crystals in Amethyst, Tanzanite, Chrysolite and White Opal. It's not often that... The bold and the beautiful of culture can blend with that of nature. But in the art and life of McHugh NYC founder Kevin McHugh, they're meant to be together. "My love affair with New York City, coupled with my admiration and respect for the majesty of sailfish, was really what sparked me to embark on this project," Kevin says. Traveling between the worlds of NY nightlife, fashion, and music, Kevin became a fixture of them all, as a career manager for music and visual artists. He crossed the globe promoting their diverse projects and hosting premier events, from intimate gatherings in Denver to multi-thousand-person concerts in Spain. His travels sharpened his appreciation for artistic expression, and for distinctive and unique objects of beauty. It was when he became intrigued by the elegant sailfish that the novice artist embarked on his own visual venture. "The more I researched these fish and other billfish like Marlin, the more I wanted to showcase them, and bring attention to their plight of being overfished and possibly brought to the verge of extinction," he says. Merging his interest in the fish and his aesthetic inspirations, Kevin launched a boutique business creating fiberglass renditions of the creatures, adorned with different materials: everything from iridescent mother of pearl and brilliant Swarovski crystals to leather and lacquer. The pieces are meant to change the way people perceive the notion of "trophy fish" by transforming them into stunning works of art. Kevin's exquisite pieces have been sought after by an exclusive audience to date. He counts Patricia Field and Wendy Williams among his many clients. Miami's affluent Ocean Drive magazine recently celebrated his art by featuring a McHugh fish in their Art Basel/Holiday Gift Guide Issue. Pair of Baby Sea Turtle Sculptures Value: $5,000.

“Ocean Grace” print by Jeff Hornbaker

$3,500.00

Framed black and white fine art print – Artist proof Framed dimensions - 31.5 x 31.5 “Ocean Grace” by Jeff Hornbaker is part of a serie called “LIFE ON WATER: Images of the Ocean and Beyond”, the first collection of black and white photographic prints renowned photographer and cinematographer Jeff Hornbaker has ever assembled for exhibition. He has done so in reverence to all those before him that dedicated their existence to a life in the water, and to all those that will follow. This is the artist proof, printed on 100% archival paper Gold Fiber Silk. Jeff Hornbaker has spent the greater portion of his life traveling the globe creating images on film. His travels always start with the ocean as the calling and end in dimensions beyond. A life spent in the ocean has been enriched by his desire to document the experience and share the beauty of the world in all her majesty. About Jeff Hornbaker Shooting since 1976, visual artist, cinematographer, director and photographer Jeff Hornbaker has an unprecedented eye for beauty. Surfing first lead Hornbaker to water, and his camera allowed him to stay. Initially Jeff shot for pleasure, but it wasn’t long before his images caught the eyes of surf publications. Shooting for editorial allowed his explosive talent to grow and develop into what would become his signature style of brilliant colors and intriguing angles. His conceptual imagery provided the keystone formulas for the evolution of surfing publications to this day. As the surf culture shifted from a rebellious indulgence to an ocean lifestyle choice, Jeff was a primary influence in shaping the creative direction for early surf brands like Rip Curl, OP, O’Neill, Arnett and many more. It was the beginning of a career that would take him around the world for some of the biggest labels to come. Hornbaker would go on to develop the visual style for premier international surf culture brands Quiksilver and Roxy for two + decades. He became renown as the pioneer to shoot fashion and portraiture below water. It was these groundbreaking works that lead the way, and soon underwater realms became a natural “studio” for all photographers who followed his genre. Jeff’s entire life and business still center around a lifestyle above and below the water. Since his humble beginnings, and throughout 38 years of world travels – Jeff remains a leader at the very top of the field in surf, fashion, ocean action, culture, character and exploration adventure.
