All of us here at the store; Glen, Carol, Janet, Deb, John, Christa and Rex, take pride in our reputation for providing high quality custom framing and superior products for our customer.

| "True Blues" By Andy Thomas |
 Everyone’s familiar with the painting of dogs playing poker.

“True Blues,” are also having a good time as they play a hand: Andrew Jackson, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton.
We have this 20" x 30" Signed and numbered Canvas Edition available in our Gallery! The regular price for this framed piece is $595. We are running an Election Special of only $399 and no sales tax!

| Chella May's Featured Artist |
 As she searches for painting subjects, she sees the evidence of urban growth destroying the natural and rural scenes in the Great Central Valley of California. Chella’s deep concern of these disappearing scenes and desire to capture these views of the past is revealed in the small plein air studies she does on site. She strives to record these sensations with spontaneous brush strokes, expressing on canvas, the light and shadows of the landscape.
Chella is a graduate of Ball State University with a Bachelor of Science Art Education. She moved to California in 1956 and taught art at various levels for the past forty years. She is past president of the Modesto Art Center and Gallery. She has painted extensively, exhibiting her work in many regional and national shows. Chella’s work has been widely recognized by the many awards she has received. Her works are in many private collections across the country. She lives and works in Modesto.
