James Brandess is not only a gifted artist but an honest businessman a professional who knows…read moreexactly what he is doing. Here in New York, I had a beautiful large painting by James Brandess, Saugatuck Dunes. It was time to sell the painting that had been the center of our interior design for years, we received countless compliments on the beautiful large Brandess painting. A phone call, a voice (Brandess) on the phone, a lot of expense, a lot of work to crate, ship the painting to the Brandess Gallery resulted in a very nice check $$$ for me after the painting sold. Brandess is a professional he knew just how to price the painting that sold for full asking price quicky. Lucas the gallery manager is a great asset to Brandess Gallery. Lucas helped me buy a large giclee, Big Red, a lighthouse that I have framed and now hangs in my home, with a dozen Big Red cards, 2 coasters, and 2 magnets, to add to my collection lighthouses. Don't miss the Brandess Gallery gifts, notecards, coasters, calendars, magnets, at VERY reasonable prices. Bernard FitzGerald, Jr. THE EFFECTIVE PRESENTER, INC.

Currently my favorite place in Holland!! Very unique restaurant which offers phenomenal food and…read moredrinks but also has the art studio which you're free to walk around and view the art. Just about all of the art is from local artists and really adds to the bohemian vibe. The pizza here is fantastic! I recommend the margherita pizza but honestly they are all good! Sacha is always walking around and checking in on his guests, he loves to come by and chat with you as you eat it while you wait for your food. He also hosts private dining Chefs table experiences and classes were he teaches you to make pasta! Holland is hurting for fun and unique restaurants but Galleria is doing its fair share to bring up the Holland culinary profile!

LaFontsee Galleries is a place you shouldn't miss. Everything they do, they excel at. They…read morerepresent some of the best artists in the Grand Rapids area and beyond. I love supporting them. They started out as a "hole-in-the-wall" frame shop over on Grand Avenue. Then they moved to their two-story space over on Monroe Avenue a few blocks north of the old Grand Rapids Press. Now they have two sites. I love that they have continued to grow. Their success is well deserved. They support artists in a big way. They help you with your presentation, ie., framing, installation, giclee printing, etc., and they have the perfect gallery space to showcase great work. Their quality of work is always top notch. When you leave your work in their hands, you know it will be handled with great care and an immense attention to detail. I've never felt fully confident with picking out frames on my own for my work, but the staff at LaFontsee Galleries has never let me down. Our combined work is still on my walls from over the years all the way to the 1990s when I moved to Grand Rapids and they opened their first frame shop. This summer, I needed to have several canvases stretched on bars for my ArtPrize entry. Linda LaFontsee and her staff performed an excellent job and helped to make my artwork a success. If I were you, I wouldn't go anywhere else in West Michigan for preparing my work for a gallery show. LaFontsee cares and it shows.
