Jill makes framing seem like an art in and of itself. Once in the frame, you can't imagine your chosen art piece outside of it. The frame not only becomes an extension of the piece but you start to get the feeling it can't live without it. Wood Gallery has been framing my favorite artwork and memories for the better part of a decade or more before having ever even stepped foot in her gallery, until last week. I was on vacation in San Diego, with the family, when we decided to go to Coronado for the day, so we decided to stop in for our 1st visit. WOW, I was amazed! I couldn't help but get the feeling that I was stepping into a museum not a storefront. It was such a pleasure to finally meet Jill in person. The gallery had several hand signed lithographs of one of my favorite artists, Picasso, along with plenty of traditional and contemporary original artwork by a range of local and international artists. Jill's staff was courteous, friendly and knowledgeable without a hint of attitude like so many other places. They have no problem with curious visitors who just want to walk in and take a look at the beautiful artwork. I will continue to have my framing done exclusively by Jill and her art gallery. Coronado turned out to be a great little stop on our visit to Southern California. Art and Frames by Wood Gallery is a must stop when in Coronado. Don't forget to ask for Jill!

My girlfriend and I both have a love + passion for art and make it a priority to visit a few art galleries during our travels. It's something we enjoy doing together. After arriving to SD, we checked into the Del and went for a walk down Orange Ave. We were lucky to notice a charming art gallery right across the street. We had never seen it before. Walking up to the front door i read a sign saying that viewing is by appointment only. Since we love art so much i called an made an appointment for the next day at 12p. The following day we showed up 15 minutes early to see the door was open and someone was there. Sean (the owner) greeted us at the door with a smile and charm that matched the gallery. As we walked in we felt the presence of the collector. Pasionate, clean, intelligent, charming and elegant. The art displayed on the floor is just magnificent. The fung shui and layout of the gallery was fluid and easy to peruse. As we continued to look around we discovered a painting by LaDiva Ruan. It was of the Hotel Del Coronado where we were staying. The combinations of colors, techniques and skills were just flawless. I had always wanted to bring a piece of the Del back home with us. I wanted to buy it. Being a bit of an art connoisseur myself i knew how the game worked. Or at least i thought lol. After negotiating a bit we made a deal and I bought the piece. Everytime I see it in my home I think of Sean and his warming hospitality and his charming gallery near the Del. The memory is apart of the art. Sean is extremely knowledgeable about the history of art and definitely educated us on a few things. He told us a few funny stories about the artist and unique facts about the hotel. I look forward to stopping by again next time I'm in town. 5 stars

With its two-story open concept and brick walls, it has an urban yet elevated industrial vibe. I came here recently during Comic Con week and in addition to the modern pop art downstairs, I geeked out on the Marvel pieces upstairs. They featured the original comic books, time stone, orb, and a few life-sized Marvel super heroes. It was a treat and appropriate for Comic Con, of course! Can't wait to see which talented artists they'll feature at the gallery next.
