I finally purchased this photograph after years of pining away for it…read more Christian spent a lot of time with me making suggestions and providing options for this piece. I really valued his expert opinion and appreciated the amount of time he spent with me while I hemmed and hawwed over a decision. I eventually went with one of his first suggestions. I love that he noted the metallic finish of the photo and he took that into account when suggesting a mat. I mentioned it was going on a bright orange wall and he thought the white on white would play well with the color. I absolutely LOVE this piece and treasure it. I will be sure to take any future projects to Frame of Mind because I know I will be in good hands.

Admission is very reasonable, and students receive discounted entry at just $10. Donations are also warmly welcomed and help support this wonderful community art space.

What a cool storefront - new to us this year walking around Barlow!…read more We enjoyed looking through the glass ornaments, paperweights (the galaxy ones were insane!!) and glasses. You can tell expert skill and care were taken when creating these. If you're looking for a unique gift, the glasses or even straws would make for a great option. I love that they offer classes and group events for glassblowing and creating. We're definitely considering a class for our family outing next year! Prices are on par with handmade glass and specialty art in the area. Friendly owner and wishing them the best!

Sebastopol is an artsy area that has a hippie vibe to it. For this reason, you will find metal art sculptures throughout the city as well.

I was so curious about all of these metal sculptures around town so a friend and I parked on one…read moreend of Florence Avenue and casually walked up and down the street. What imagination and creativity! I loved photographing each one. There was one house with tons of artwork. The entire front yard is adorned with them and I wondered if this is where the artist lives. Sure enough there were pamphlets near the sidewalk and that's when I learned that the artist is Patrick Amiot. His spouse, Brigitte Laurent, paints his works of art. He calls his creations Urban Folk Art. Some are quite huge but all are very unique and original. What an entertaining way to reuse metal. For feathers and scales, we noticed he layers flat jar lids and they look amazing after they've been painted. My favorite was (Buster) Posey and the two owls but there were so many we both loved. I drive up this street regularly but it is definitely worth it to park and take a closer look. Florence Avenue is like the artist's outdoor studio. It's a manageable and worthwhile leisurely stroll. You will see other metal sculptures around town by this artist and I happened to know that Mom's Apple Pie on Gravenstein Highway has one now too so I included a photo of it. Such fun whimsical creations!

From the owner: I believe art is the way we communicate with ourselves, with those around us, and with the world…read more Art can have many expressions through many mediums. My art comes from my study of Zen Buddhism and the martial art, Aikido. In Zen, there is a wonderful austerity and beauty. We see that in the rock garden at Ryoanji Temple in Kyoto, Japan. Aikido comes from the lush Shinto garden that is filled with vibrancy and aliveness. I think of Aikido as the bamboo forests in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon." When I pick up my brush, I am dealing with only ink and paper. The blank sheet of paper is where I step into these worlds. As soon as I began moving my brush, I am both artist and observer. I am also having fun because something is happening that fully engages me, the artist, and me the observer. There is a fine balance between these two forces.

She came into my home with dozens of options, hanging canvas's up on my wall where I was able to study them, take a picture and feel the art in the space - then - all of a sudden, I turn around after she has put another two pieces up and WOW that's it. I would have never picked what I picked in any store - but seeing on my wall in MY living room - I knew - it spoke to me, and that was it. The framer came shortly after, framed it perfectly and it's now hanging on my wall. Do you know how many pictures and how much time I would have had to lug in my car and put up each piece only to probably return it and start all over again? Too many hours to count - too many holes in my wall - too many trips to countless stores. Noa is awesome, talented, warm, friendly and honest about what works and what doesn't AND there is no pressure. It's free for her to come and take a test drive of art in your home! Highly recommend!

The paintings she recommended were perfect for each room and what was especially valuable was her suggestions for optimizing the space. We already made a couple of the changes she mentioned and it has really elevated the room! Her style is very personable without feeling like too much of a "sales pitch". Her framer was also punctual and efficient, and available just a couple days after we bought the art. Would definitely recommend Noa's Art to any new home owners looking to create a beautiful space!
