It was a magical, one could call alchemical, blend of recycled and up cycled materials to depict the natural world. It was a unique mix of painting and sculpture. An earlier exhibition was called "The Fire and the Rose are One" after the 2017 wildfires. The owners know their artists, making it a personal experience. They've had poetry readings, screened movies that depict the artistic works in the process of creation. Here's one of their websites- https://www.facebook.com/sofiecontemporaryarts/ Sofie Contemporary Arts is in a light, airy, accessible place in downtown Calistoga. Paintings, sculpture, and everyday objects beckon. A magical spot in Calistoga.

So where do I start...there are so many wonderful artists here in our small community and Bradford…read moreBrenner is one of my favorites!!! Brad is not only a great artist, but he is also one of the most charismatic business owners on the Square. Jessica, the Gallery Manager and Brad's Better Half, is very knowledgeable and helpful. She conducts business in a no-pressure and calming manner. Don't hesitate to walk into the gallery to say hello and view Brad's art. See something you like...don't be shy, make an offer! Brad and Jessica are very accommodating in assisting you to acquiring that "can't-live-life-without" item(s).

The location is just perfect, right on the square with a view of everything going on in town. Step inside and get a sense of being inside the artist's studio, with fresh oils on the palette, used brushes, and a piece of artwork being created before your eyes. Then take a few minutes and get to know the artist, Brad, and his much much better half Jess. They are amazing people, warm and genuine, with an obvious zest for life and the good times. This place and these people are the personification of Sonoma Wine Country. We will never not visit when we are in town.

Each room contains an artist's work I am interested in, for my own place. Being in this gallery has the feel of being in a museum quality place, not flipping through bulk at an art supply store. This gallery was established in 1985, and is a landmark for me now. The owner has been in this location all the time. It is a world class art gallery. The proprietor is clearly an expert. Our chat-time gave me a ton of insight about Lee Youngman Galleries. The compositions are welcomed for personal purchases, business establishments, and even significant gifts. This is not a small cramped space. This gallery is as classy as they come. And I didn't feel the unwelcome assessment other galleries in that area are apparently obligated to dispense. If you want to enjoy the experience of a fine art purchase, come in here. The memory you create at Lee Youngman Galleries will be a good one

Not only because several of them have works displayed here but because Lee's gracious hospitality and personality are unsurpassed. She is one of the best representatives of fine art in the wine country, if not the entire state. The works that can be viewed here are some of the best to be found anywhere - and always a treat to see for an artist or collector. If you are interested in seeing some of the best fine art California has to offer, in a no pressure environment, that feels like home - this is the place. You won't be disappointed!

As I was walking along the sidewalk in old town Sonoma, I pasted a lot of shops. Many of them were…read moreart galleries with art pieces that didn't interest me. But the framed color photo of a soulful content face painted in a gorgeous shade of blue caught my eye. You can say... I made eye contact. I moved in closer to the shop window to get a better look and the next thing I knew I was walking into the gallery. The Lisa Kristine gallery. Who the heck is Lisa Kristine?! I was thinking this to myself because her photos are pieces of art. The walled photos were beautiful. Mesmerizing photos of places and people in gorgeous foreign lands. Some of the people were from indengious cultures but she captured their joy and pride. Anyway Lisa Kristine I found out is an award winning Humanitarian photographer, activist, and speaker. Her photos and photo books are shown and sold in the gallery and online. The photo books are a more affordable option vs the art photos. Another favorite photo is a black and white of aged weathered hands grasping the flow of running water from a hydraulic manual pump. Gorgeous storytelling in a moment of time photo. Step on into the gallery across from the Sonoma Plaza. Maybe something will catch your eye. #lisakristinephotojournalist #lisakristinephotogallerysonoma
