Adrea Bright
Adrea Bright is an award-winning fine art, family, and portrait photographer based in Southern California. Her early area of concentration in watercolor indelibly shaped her style of photography. What began as a personal instinct to preserve memories grew into a twenty year portrait career. Over time her work has shifted to scenes and details fluid with light, color, and visual poetry.

What is Groundless?
Groundless is easier to feel than to categorize. We are headquartered in the Funk Zone in Santa Barbara, California. But, we’re not only a place.
What we do is create things. Community may be the most important thing we create. We do that through curating and hosting shared experiences like gatherings, workshops, classes, and meditations in-person and online. We function as a platform for art, music, writing, and creativity of all kinds.
What we aspire to be is a modern refuge — a cultural hub for the exploration of what it means to be fully alive, for learning and growing to our full potential, and for realizing that we all deeply and fundamentally belong together.
In other words, a refuge in the form of being, becoming, and belonging.
