The gallery features art from a variety of local and national artists, mostly florals and landscapes, with a smattering of portraits and abstract paintings. If you love poppies, this is the place for you! The owner is very helpful and wants his art customers to be committed to a piece before purchasing. He brought several paintings to our house to see how they would work in our space and lighting. That made a huge difference - the paintings we thought would be perfect were not the ones we ended up buying. The only reason for 4 stars vs 5 is that I'd like to see a bit more variety in the art, and the quote for a frame for a painting we purchased seemed to be a bit high, although the frame and liner the owner suggested was perfect. Highly recommend this business.

Andrew helped us with our master bathroom remodel in 2013 and I could not be happier with the results. He and his team were always at our house bright and early, and worked all day. They took extra care to make sure all dust and renovation materials were confined to the bathroom area, laying mats down on the carpets each day upon their arrival, and installing a plastic zip door to the bathroom entry. We never say a speck of dust in any other area of the house. Andrew prides himself on assuring proper sealant on tiled showers, and spent several days laying layer upon layer of sealant before adding the tile to our new shower. We haven't had a single problem since, and I am confident that we never will. He also took extra care to ensure a small, practically unnoticeable incline on the shower flooring to assure all the water drained consistently well. This has help up maintain the quality of the tile we chose, and not caused us any issues with our grout. We did have a small issue with our frameless glass door shifting due to the change in season several months after the renovation was completed, but Andrew organized to have it corrected the same week we called him, and at no charge to us. Andrew always took extra time to meet with us to select tile, granite, etc., offer suggestions and opinions, and kept the project on track. I was highly impressed with the quality of his work and would recommend him to anyone looking for a remodel job, be it small or large.

He can't find it.??!! He has lost our very meaningful, irreplaceable print!!!! Thank goodness I have my receipt, but he said a family member reorganized everything. He will have them come in and help him look, and I will update my review with the status because I told him I'll be back on Monday March 4. March 16 2024 Update: He found the print last week and said he would have it framed by today. I went to pick it up just now, and it's framed wrong - it's supposed to have two mats,and it has zero mats, the wrong type glass, and the frame wood is the wrong style. I asked why, and he said he didn't remember me telling him that was the requirement. I showed him my copy of the receipt where he wrote down all those specifications I ordered, but he can't find HIS copy. I offered to email or text him a copy of the receipt, but he doesn't use technology. so I have to go home, make a copy of my receipt and bring it back to him.
