December 2016: Gallery Picks and Gift-Giving Guide!

At last, and not a moment too soon, we are here to help you with those last minute gifts and indulgences.  Please find below a small selection of the items waiting for you here in the Gallery and in our online Shop, including new collections from several of our fabulous artists.  We've displayed these as separate groupings of their latest offerings, which can be viewed on their artist pages along with more of their always-amazing work, by clicking anywhere on the photos.

You can also click on individual links to visit many of these pieces in the online Gallery Shop where they are available for purchase, or feel free to contact the Gallery; we'll be available and happy to assist you throughout the holiday season.

We wish you the happiest and merriest of holidays, and please enjoy looking through this festival of gifts, from us, to you.

Jewelry:  Three Artist Collections

Agnes Seebass for Gitana Collection

An artist known for her bold contemporary designs and
use of gold leaf in unexpected ways.

Jane Drucker

Fine art jewelry, fun and modern:  those are Jane's trademarks.

Joan Cihak

Cool looks from the heat of the kiln!  Joan's Asian-inspired
jewelry hints at formality, and yet more often than not hints broadly
at a very individualistic, even abstract, look.

WOOD FIRED CERAMICS

Two Artist Collections

Eva Funderburgh

Wood Fired Ceramic and Bronze.
The Beloved Beasts shown above are all available for purchase
as of publication time, and a few of their buddies can be seen
by clicking  through to Eva's Artist pages.  But as mentioned
in an earlier blog post, they are quickly being adopted and many
are headed off to new homes.  So don't wait, if you simply
have to have one!  They are truly Desirable Objects.

And if you happen to be in the neighborhood, do stop
in to say hello to them in person, and in particular to
view the artist's stunning installation, Triumph.

(See it right here, in the online Shop; but it is eight feet long,
and really needs to be enjoyed in person.)

PAINTINGS

Four Artist Collections

Jen Till

Irene Yesley

Karen Chaussabel

Gerardo Aguayo
