We are also pleased to showcase the beautiful watercolor paintings of Ian Ramsay. As you will see on the following pages, Ian has given us a wonderful diversity of subjects; from English country scenes to coastal settings from the Pacific Northwest. These newest works highlight his masterly use of light, shadows, reflections on water and luminous skies. New to the gallery this summer is a collection of some of the most astonishingly beautiful and intricate basket weavings that I have ever seen. Handmade in Panama’s rural Wounaan tribe, these vibrant baskets, now some of the rarest art forms across the globe, are the result of ancient weaving traditions passed through generations of the indigenous peoples of the Darién rainforest. Looking ahead, we still have a busy show schedule as we move toward September and all the fall art events at the gallery. Please visit our website where you can see the upcoming schedule of shows and get a sneak preview of some of the artwork that will be featured. Bill Anton, Wyoming Daybreak, 36 x 34 inches, $28,000
A year ago this August we were celebrating the gallery’s 50th anniversary. We are very proud of that milestone and as we continue to move forward and keep up with the ever changing art market, our mission remains steadfast; and that is to be a crossroads for both established artists as well as new talent and to service our clientele in such a way that makes art collecting an enriching and joyful experience. To that end, we continue our expansion into new art styles, new talent, broader subject matter, while still maintaining our core roots of traditional, representational art. Speaking of core roots, every August we host our annual Western Classics show, an event that spotlights the gifted artists who have made it their life’s mission to capture the breadth, diversity and beauty of this place we call the West. Whether a historic representation or a more contemporary narrative, the stories told through these fine paintings and sculpture call to the imagination of collectors from all walks of life. During this event, we are pleased to feature the newest paintings by award winning Cowboy Artist of America Jim Norton, whom we have actively represented since 1986.
We look forward to seeing you in the gallery! Maryvonne Leshe Managing Partner
