Strolling Down Gallery Lane

After a superfun week enjoying the holiday, reconnecting with old gallery friends and discovering some marvelous new ones, I thought I'd share with you some links to my favorite galleries and shops for extraordinary fine art jewelry and crafts. The list of them is longer than Route 66, so here are just a few of the most fun, feisty, fierce and fabulous!
Yes, there's etsy, which I love, but there's nothing like visiting real galleries, handling the work and speaking with the gallery staff or the artists themselves to learn more about the pieces and the process. So get off your seat, explore, connect, play and carry on the spirit of Small Business Saturday all year long!
And share your own favorite galleries and shops if you have them...Cheers!
