CLOSED 4/24/2024

The Gallery will be closed today as construction crews are actively scraping the old roof off of the top of our suite and debris is falling into the Gallery. In addition, they are working on installing the new air-conditioning units and are doing welding and duct work inside our space. It is incredibly noisy and not a safe place for our staff or clients to be as construction workers are in and out and heavy equipment is being used in our space.

Depending on how long it takes the crews to complete their work above our suite, there is a chance we may be closed tomorrow and possibly Friday as well. Please bear with us as we navigate this time and needed repairs.

Hand Crafted Table
by David Moore

David has been working with wood since he was an undergraduate in college. He has a Bachelors Degree in Fine Arts from the State University of New York, Buffalo and a Masters Degree from the State University of New York, Brockport. After 33 years of teaching art in New York, David retired to Tennessee with his wife, LouAnn, where he has spent the last 24 years living his dream as a full time wood working artist.

"When I approach a new piece, I have three things in mind: function, a combination of interesting forms, and the use of contrasting wood."

We took a field trip to his incredible wood working studio to hear more about how he approaches creating art that is both beautiful AND functional. Check it out!

"Mint Julep”
by Brandie Lee

Brandie Lee is a Nashville-based artist who has recently ventured into watercolor and illustration. She is a lover of Truth, Beauty, Goodness and Joy!

“I love finding ways to reveal these things through paint and ink!”

Her most recent project is a series of watercolor laughing animals, inadvertently in the shape of their letters, which we happily distribute custom ordered reproductions of in our Gallery.

“I love getting to illustrate pure childlike joy, and I haven’t been able to make it through the design and execution of any letter with out laughing out loud at some point along the way. I hope they bring as much joy to you as they do to me. And I hope they imbed within each beholder a deep sense that life is truly good!”

We recently sat down with Brandie to learn more about how she creates art that is not only fun, but functional... Check it out!

“Garden of Dreams”
by Anna Razumovskaya

Anna’s work is both classical and modern, her romantic figurative works carry with them both tradition and originality. Her work captures the elegance and grace of the female form with both an air of simplicity and sophistication.
