The art on display in our Gallery varies from Boats, Beaches & Birds, to fine ethnic art by Marian Howard, modern sketches, to pottery, and other craft based arts. Much of the art in Collectors' Gallery comes from local artists and we have a wide variety of originals and also some specialist prints.
Happy Holidays! and remember to "Shop Small"
Support Your local small Businesses.

X Ray Photography
By using x-rays instead of light, an unusual inner vision is revealed, and Nature shows us textures, details, and shadows that would otherwise not be seen. Radiologist and Photographer, Steven N. Meyers produces some incredible art by floral radiography using his specimen radiography unit.
This print is entitled "Japanese Lantern" and was recently sold and framed by the gallery. Though it can be purchased smaller, this project utilized the image of 42X42 and finished framed size of 44.5X44.5. It hangs over a living room couch and is quite the show stopper. |
Open Floor Plans
Framing Solution = An open floor plan means fewer walls separating spaces. Since walls are the usual spot to display framed pieces, you may need to look for other alternatives such as the upper wall space shown here. Try displaying a painting on a floor easel in the corner, setting smaller frames in bookcases, etc. Open floor plans allow you to see farther from room to room. In order to maximize viewing pleasure, consider selecting somewhat more dramatic art to frame when it can be seen from a longer distance.
Lower image on left is a project just completed. Artist, Filippo Quaretti allowed us to enlarge his art to create a giclee on canvas for a wall more than 6 feet wide and 22 feet tall. The home's open floor plan allows his work to be seen from the entry foyer, dining,kitchen,stairway and bridge on second floor.
