Brophy Art Gallery & Design Studio — Attraction in San Clemente

Brophy Art Gallery in San Clemente is more than just an art space—it’s a portal into a vibrant, soul-stirring world. Drew Brophy’s artwork pulses with energy, surf culture, and cosmic symbolism, each piece telling a story that pulls you in deeper the longer you look. But what truly elevates the gallery is Drew himself—an amazing and inspiring human being with a mind as expansive as the universe. I could literally sit and talk with him for hours about life, energy, existence—you name it—and have done so. Every conversation leaves you charged, thinking bigger and feeling more connected.

Maria Brophy, Drew’s wife and partner in both life and business, is equally incredible.

Whether you’re an art lover, a seeker of inspiration, or just someone walking in off the street, the Brophy Art Gallery will leave a lasting impression.

False advertising beware! They are passing off their Posca marker set as a special edition but it’s generic and has zero special branding.
