This is our most recently introduced group. These pieces are sophisticated and reveal the folklore and legends of the Southwest. They exemplify many of the elements that are prominent in Native American Art. These dramatic, high spirited and sometimes whimsical pieces of art are evocative of a cross section of cultures.

Plein Air & California Impressionist Collection

This is a very large and extremely popular category. The term Plein Air is derived from the French En Plein Air meaning "in the open air" or "outdoor painting." As the light is constantly changing outdoors, it is important to catch the essence of the landscape or scene. The pieces in this large group represent both California Impressionism as well as European Plein Air painting. The earthy tones of fall, the shimmering freshness of spring and the more lanquid atmosphere of summer are reflected in this collection of fine pieces.
