Studio E Gallery — Attraction in Palm Beach Gardens

After eating brunch next door at the Cooper, I wandered in because they were one of the few stores open in PGA Commons on New Years Day. According to their website, they have been in the contemporary art business for over 20 years. I always love to check out art and they had some exceptional paintings, mixed media, sculptures, and glass which all had price tags in the multiple thousands of dollars.

If you want to learn more about the artists they represent, there is an excellent tutorial on their website. My favorite pieces were the intricate glass by David Patchen, a former musician turned glass artist. He attended the glass school founded by Dale Chihuly. Pieces run between 7 and 9 thousand dollars.

I also liked Rick Eggert's "Dynamic Cosmos" , a series of fluid shaped glass pieces meant to explore ideas of change, growth, and time. A series of these pieces will set you back $7,500.

The art that brought a smile to my face was by Stephen Hansen. He wanted to get better at painting so he recreated a piece by Rothko. That gave him the idea of incorporating a small papier-mâché man painting masterpieces. My favorite one had the man staring at money as he painted Benjamin Franklin's portrait. These run around $4.000.

My wife and I walked into the gallery and were greeted with the warm and special smile of Becca- whom I believe is the manager. ( if she is not, she should be) She worked patiently with us, answered all our questions, was extremely accommodating, and in the end, we walked out with a gorgeous piece of art they installed in our home an hour later. Even their in home installation was seamless. I can not say enough positive things about...
