New Gallery for me up in the mountains

My watercolors, small oils and giclee prints are now available at Artspresso Gallery, in Idyllwild, that lovely little mile-high art town in the mountains up Hwy 74.  Owned by well-known artist Gerry High and Celeste Cuomo it's a must-visit on any trip to Idyllwild.  54380 North Circle Drive, Idyllwild, CA.  Phone 951-659-6162   This is "Silver Platter Pears" watercolor 11" x 16" one of several of my watercolors in the gallery.  Here's a pic of the gallery nestled deep in the trees.  Such a quaint little town.

Congratulations Diane! How great! If I ever get to stop there, I'll make sure to come see your work. Such beautiful country!

I am so happy for you! You were looking for a place for your watercolors! How terrific is that!!! And I love these pears! I think the more you do oils, the more your watercolors become denser and richer and appear like an oil painting! This is very classic!!! wow!

Idlewild IS a beautiful little town. One of my high school friends just sold her cabin up there. It is right across the street from Cafe Amore on the corner. She bought it as a fixer upper then sold it. She does that with her houses too. The location was also close to a gallery but I don't remember the name of it. Alot of tourists go there. Congratulations and Good Luck!
