We were visiting Chicago for the first time and on our first walk outside, we passed the beautiful building and realized it was a gallery. Luckily, we were able to find it again a couple days later. We came in about an hour before closing and Samiera and Matt were absolutely amazing. They were extremely knowledgeable about everything we were looking at. It was so nice just looking through all of the beautiful pieces they had. We were not rushed at all, despite keeping them a bit past closing time. We walked away with three pieces which we are extremely excited to get. Shipping to WA from IL was easy with Matt and Samiera communicating with us the whole way through shipment. Their online inventory is up to date and I will be stalking it consistently now, but going in person is a really amazing experience. Support the arts, people! We will update this once our prices are framed and hung. Thank you to Samiera and Matt!
Update: We had our pieces framed once we got home. We love these pieces! Thanks again,...

Oppenheimer can produce to the same high quality as they can design.
Oppenheimer is top quality in all regards.
I have no affiliation with Oppenheimer beyond being a highly...

The catalog ranges from famous authors such as Audubon, Gould, Elliot and many more. You can find some of their prints at the Field Museum as well! They also have affordable entry level prices (even for a young professional). I will definitely be buying more prints as I expand my natural...
