The traffic&parking in St. Helena can be as problematic as San Francisco, so the comparison kind of fits. When it comes to Christopher Hill, I keep confusing them with the Christopher Queen Galleries in Duncans Mills on the Russian River. The Christopher Hill Gallery, unlike Christopher Queen, is centered on contemporary art. It's up a steep flight of stairs, but the journey is worth it. The gallery owners are friendly&knowledgeable. They have an amazing roster of artists in their collection/exhibitions- https://www.chgalleries.com/artists They have also been doing exhibitions to benefit wildfire victims, using art as a form of healing. It's an oasis of modern art off St. Helena's Main Street.

Nice set up, absolutely beautiful colors and a wide variety of subjects. Simon's stile is very unique and easily identifiable. He makes the best out of what acrylic paints can do. Some pieces are simply paint pours, some are brushes, but all are very bright, very positive and just bring up smiles. Prices are from $7000 to $40000, they will work with you within a reasonable range, staff is experienced and knowledgeable. Even if the price point is out of your range, stepp in and enjoy, his artwork is really like no other.

High end art gallery. As in, $14k plus art works. Most in the $45k range. Beautiful artwork and…read morevery polite and considerate staff even after telling them their artwork was out of my price range. They very politely showed me around the gallery and different works and how the different light affects it. Would definitely recommend if you can afford their art, or not, the works are stunningly beautiful.

The gentlemen in the gallery, owner sales person , never got out of his chair to greet us, (2) women, (4) children Why, perhaps we were of a different color than him? When a gay couple walked in , he got right up to greet them. The owner of what ever he was suppose to be , I was showing my grandchildren this gallery. My grandson reached out to point to a statue the man looked at my grandson said don't touch, .The man, never addressed us, adults, just persistent following my grandson, I was very concerned about this man and his behavior towards my grandson, " this man continued to follow my grandson saying "what don't you understand? As my grandson walked towards me", I told the family lets go we are not welcome here !at that time, we walked out of his store/ gallery. He is a very rude, person, how would he know we didn't have a million dollars to spend. Don't take your family inside his gallery. please shop some where else, Perhaps he only caters to Caucasian people. He never addressed me, just following my grandson who iis 7 years old. Apparently he doesn't want children, young adults, 17,16'13' 7 in his gallery. He should post this signage in Front of his gallery. White rich people only NO CHILDREN ALLOWED Dennis Rae fine art, gallery. I certainly hope , he closes his gallery. He is very offensive. Am I upset of course, my children didn't need to be treated like that, they were well behaved. Walking & looking at the art work.

There's an amazing array of pieces- from abstract art, to sculptures with oceanic themes, a giant coffee table book by Annie Liebovitz, to a stunning gigantic book of Tibetan Buddhist sacred art. The curators are friendly&approachable. What's happily surprising is that not all the art is big bucks. One can find affordable gifts that are also tasteful. They represent contemporary artists, particularly those of the Bay Area. While the St. Helena gallery is an oasis, I really should go down to the Yountville one that has a sculpture garden.

Wolk to be exemplary despite the fact that I wasn't looking to buy immediately. With a vast knowledge of the artists presented and a diverse understanding of the arts in general I can't recommend this place enough - if/when I head west next I'll be back, ideally this time with a decorating budget in mind.
