“Modern Leisure” by Artist Danny Heller

California-based artist Danny Heller’s latest series delves into the mid-century leisure culture that has remained prevalent throughout the Southern part of the state. Covering the architectural designs of vacation homes, swimming pools and classic cars, Heller’s sunny paintings offer up an archive of California ‘cool’ and its lasting influence. See more images from “Modern Leisure” below.
