I like to cook and putting our food in a bowl or drinking coffee out of a Reverie mug, makes life sweet. Sandra has come up with some pretty glaze colors, and layers them to great effect. She puts a lot of thought into fit and function. And some of the pieces are just for fun.

Hannah and Joey were excellent coordinators and the rental price hadn't changed at all since we rented from them 3 years ago.

They write curriculum for Kent District libraries, host classes, organize artist markets, and do community outreach through public space design and street parties through After Dark GR. (They are a main reason why Creston businesses are covered in incredible murals done by artists).⁣ ⁣ We couldn't be more proud to belong to the same city as the people and minds who work with Lions & Rabbits. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for all the work you do in the community.

On my 2nd visit in, a few hours later, they remembered me and were really excited about my questions and ultimately my three purchases.

I called to ask a question and Michael was also really helpful. I will return and highly recommend this gallery.

So, if you can't drop thousands of dollars at some of the other art galleries, but want something nice to hang on your walls, this is the place for you. We've gotten lots of compliments on the two pieces we bought last year and will be back to buy more this summer.

Using sand from the Saugatuck area he has fashioned a number of shapes. The truly interesting thing about the process is the unique greenish color that is created by the sand. Currently the pieces are between 4-7 inches high. I'm looking forward to my next visit to see how he expands his exploration of sand from different geographies. I was initially drawn into the gallery by the bright, modern ceramic pieces which I gather was Jeff's original artistic pursuit. These vary in size probably 6-18 inches. Truly enjoyed speaking with the artist and being exposed to his enthusiasm for his new endeavor. Make sure you make time for this stop.

The artist/owner was there and he told us about some of his pieces, including these really cool vases that were inspired by fireflies - you can use a laser light to make patterns on them that glow for a second in the dark. It was so unique and unlike anything I'd ever seen before! He also makes glow in the dark glass pieces which were very interesting. He uses a lot of bold colors that I was drawn to. I didn't happen to notice any pricing because I wasn't really looking to buy anything, but he was so friendly and kind that I'd definitely stop in again when I'm in town next!

Here in New York, I had a beautiful large painting by James Brandess, Saugatuck Dunes. It was time to sell the painting that had been the center of our interior design for years, we received countless compliments on the beautiful large Brandess painting. A phone call, a voice (Brandess) on the phone, a lot of expense, a lot of work to crate, ship the painting to the Brandess Gallery resulted in a very nice check $$$ for me after the painting sold. Brandess is a professional he knew just how to price the painting that sold for full asking price quicky. Lucas the gallery manager is a great asset to Brandess Gallery. Lucas helped me buy a large giclee, Big Red, a lighthouse that I have framed and now hangs in my home, with a dozen Big Red cards, 2 coasters, and 2 magnets, to add to my collection lighthouses.
