 Atlanta, Georgia (November 3, 2015) – Ocean Market, a Parisian-inspired bistro located in Downtown Atlanta, will host an opening for its Local Artist Series on Wednesday, November 11, 2015 during a special cocktail celebration for artist Chris Strawbridge from 7 to 9 p.m. Open to the public, guests are invited to mix and mingle with the featured artist as they sip on complimentary libations and enjoy bites created by Chef Shane McIntosh of Ocean Market and Ocean Catering Company while perusing Strawbridge’s work, which will also be available for purchase.  Co-owners Chef Shane and Sage Stewart rotate works from local artists of various mediums every few months. The event is free to attend and open to the public. For more information about the opening night reception visit www.Facebook.com/OceanMarketAtlanta.

The Atlanta-based artist has shown his artwork in multiple art galleries and festivals throughout Atlanta and his artwork hangs in commercial buildings, restaurants and in private collections. Enjoying a 30-year long career within architecture and interior design firms has influenced how Strawbridge’s incorporates line, form, space and composition. Working mostly in acrylics, grease crayon, and graphite on canvas, his art has been described as architectural, minimalistic, abstract, and sometimes even, whimsical.

About Ocean Market:
Chef Shane McIntosh, Executive Chef and Owner of Ocean Catering Company, opened his first dine-in concept, Ocean Market – a Parisian inspired eatery in March 2014. At the helm of one of Atlanta’s top catering companies for more than a decade, Chef Shane also showcases his talents at his new Peachtree Street storefront locale in bustling Downtown Atlanta.  The 1400-square foot storefront features butcher-block counter tops and a small dine-in area, complete with eat-in bar seating and a community table in the center of the intimate eatery.

The well-rounded and expansive menu features a variety of reasonably priced lunch fare available for dine-in or takeout, from fresh salads and soups to traditional and panini style sandwiches and delicious crepes, all with Chef Shane’s signature creative spin.
