Came upon this gallery as part of an art walk that we read about in the local paper. This was our last stop on the walk and by far the best. It is a large gallery with a diverse collection of artwork. The owner, Richard was welcoming and made my wife and I feel very comfortable. He was able to offer lots of insight when we had questions without being intrusive, as we took our time looking around.
On a return trip to Florida we decided to visit the gallery again.

We left more knowledgable about the artist and interested in the possibility of purchasing the art which was part of an estate.

Read moreI was doing extensive research for fine arts appraisers for my bosses extensive art collection. After being recommended to Richard by a friend I reached out and called his company. He and his partner came to my bosses private residence and did an extensive review on most of the art work we felt was highly valuable and collectible He researched all the artists and pieces we had with such precision and professionalism. He put together a book of the photos of each piece ,the value it’s at in present time ,and a background of the artists history and other works to be compared to our collection. All I can say was what a tremendous talent and appreciation I have now for art appraisers. His patience and knowledge made this experience of our appraisals a very educational and satisfied client....
