Art Van Rhyn moved to Cambria in 1983. He set his sight on building the house he lives in today with a studio in front just off of Moonstone Beach Drive. Soon he joined forces with a couple other painters and started the Wednesday Irregulars, which is still going strong to this day. Jeanette and her husband moved to Cambria 34 years ago. She joined the Irregulars shortly thereafter. While the two artists are fiercely independent, they have basically been painting together for over 30 years now.
