I love art but felt this gallery was a little on the loud side for my taste but that is the beauty of art. I did love the outdoor wind art and would love to purchase one. Well about $1000 but worth it.

The art inside and out is pretty amazing. Many artists works available for purchase. They even have financing with a third party. I was here on travel and the clerks were so friendly and knowledgeable.

We stumbled upon this gallery after admiring the wind at in the front of the store. Upon going inside, they happened to be having a collection of Peanuts art on display. There are also a lot of local artists that have art for sale. We just loved seeing all the different artists work, so kind of pricey, but the variety was great to see.

We usually try to find some art pieces to commemorate our travel so I converted some casino winnings into a lovely piece by Mackenzie Thorpe. Thanks to Brenda for taking care of us.

I had a Dr. Seuss Joseph Katz and His Coat of Many Colors that I was selling. I had visited this gallery before, and knew they did a lot of Dr. Seuss business, so I gave them a call. They offered me 15k for my piece, so I got Craters and Freighters to box up my piece, and 800$ later it arrived at their gallery. I then got a call from the gallery and was told that my piece was damaged and they did not want it. Of course I knew it was not, I was the only owner and the piece was exactly how it was when I bought it. A couple days later I get another call from the gallery, saying that though it was the best condition they had seen, they could not sell it, but the owner wanted it for their "personal collection", and offered me 5k. I of course laughed, and told them to ship it to the gallery where I bought it, because they were standing behind their framing. They inspected it, and told me that there was nothing wrong with it, everything was normal with it, and it is on their floor for sale today. I bought this piece years ago because I liked its colors. I knew then and still to this day know nothing about art. To me the experience came across as shady, and i feel like they should have requested very hi-res pictures of the "known trouble spots" as they called it. Now I have a piece sitting 600 miles from my home because I had to get it inspected. I had already spent 800$ to ship it to Lake Tahoe and will have to spend a few hundred more to get it back from where it is now if it does not sell. So now, this is just a nice place to browse, but I would never give them a dollar of my business. Had this experience not happened, I think I would have at some point purchased something from them, as they do have really nice artwork.

Brenda was amazing and we ended up purchasing a work of art for our living room. We just happened to enter this art gallery as my husband is a painter and he loves gallerys. We spent 1.5 hours here and are so happy to meet Brenda who helped us with free water, wine and shipping! What a pleasant experience and we will be back. THANK YOU!

We enjoyed our visit to the Marcus Fine Art Museum. The representation of many various artists was quite interesting to browse through. The live artist was painting with acrylics on watercolor. He was calm and relaxed, amazing to watch as he simply just knew or felt where the next dabbed color should go. He talked to us as we stood and watched his painting reveal itself to all. His framing is very unique as are his wonderful reditions of Disney characters on the beach and in other paintings with bright colors - enjoyable to the eye. The staff of the Museum were friendly and helpful, willing to come around and answer any and every question. The glass work was beautiful and remarkable. The collection of Dr. Suess brought alive each and every book one had read as a child. Statues, strikingly brilliant and beautiful negative photography on metal, crackled paintings on plaster and then mounted on wood, and fantastically realistic work wherein the very hairs and whiskers of tigers and lions were painted with such a thin line they looked very real.

The gallery hosts art from a variety of artists, and therefore hosts a variety of art. I especially liked some of the woodwork. It appears that there would be something that just about everyone would enjoy looking at.

This gallery has a very good selection of artists and a good selection of items at various prices. The monthly Art Walk was here and featured the incredible watercolor artist Erik Christensen. Food items, wine and champagne were served in a very relaxing atmosphere--not high pressure. The artist was readily available to talk and discuss his works as well as actually working live on a new piece. It was a snowy day outside which made for a beautiful backdrop to this event.
