Please come in and take a look around. What you see below is a collection
of originals.
Some by international artists, some by long ago amateurs, some by family members past and present. And each is wonderful. The collection spans the past century. Every piece has a story significant to our family, Palomar Mountain or Southern California. Every piece is available, some matted and framed as shown. Each includes a "folio" describing the piece, it�s subject or the artist. I add or remove pieces from time to time, so keep in touch. Let me know what you think of the Gallery, your comments are welcome. Enjoy your visit.
The Old Palomar Collection These pieces depict Palomar Mountain's early days, roughly from the mid 1880s through the 1940s. It was a simpler time, and some who were there knew it was changing far too quickly. They recorded the era as it was unfolding, in photos and paintings. The following pieces are interpretations taken from pictures and documents our family has treasured for over a century. Enjoy. *****************************************
