This shop has evolved from being just a picture framing shop. I bopped in in recently and they…read morecurrently carry a huge selection of posters. No... not the kind with teen idols or the hang in there kitten. These posters are on the lines of looking like vintage art posters in the genre of classic rock, maps, and retro travel. They also have curated gifts with a strong local influence. The vibe was quite relaxed with vintage rock playing on the store's speaker, clean organized setup, and welcoming staff. I could easily drain my wallet shopping here. I am a huge fan of vintage looking maps and travel posters. I also was quite enamored with The Who's 2000 album cover art signed by John Entwistle's himself. John is The Who bassist and artist that drew the album cover. The framed piece is for purchase and can be yours. Plus they still are a framing shop. So if you have a need to frame something, this is your place for that professional custom service.

The parking lot next door is to a fancy restaurant that's still in construction and sadly the owners will have your car towed if you park there!

My first introduction to Thomas Kinkade's artwork was about 25 years ago through a friend of mine…read more She adored his art and collected his prints. At that time, Thomas Kinkade's art was super popular so much so he franchised out art galleries. Critics said his art was kitsch. My friend called it art. I was on the fence back then. But I have since broaden my horizons to appreciate his artwork. He is known as the famed "Painter of Light". The late Thomas Kinkade was born in Placerville, CA, in 1958 and graduated from the local high school. He passed away in 2012. The art gallery is on Main Street in Placerville. I popped on in a few weeks back. It was filled with a few oil originals and a lot of Thomas Kinkade studio artists works and prints. The studio art continues Kinkade's painting technique and style. Besides the typical Kinkade genres of cottages, bridges, Main Streets, mountains, forests; they carry artwork incorporating Disney images (Disney princesses, Star Wars). My favorite pieces were the classic Kinkade's of Main Street Placerville and California natures scenes such as the images of Yosemite. The person working was welcoming and even though he was busy, he made it a point to sincerely greet everyone.

I *wish* I could give this shop more than five stars. I've been here before, as they have been…read morehere for some 28 years. Some people have said that the owner of the shop is "rude". He's not, he is just very "to the point." I get that. I recently lost my partner. She lived in New York, I live here in Rancho, and we kept this crazy cross country relationship going for 20 years. I was back east recently, cleaning out her storage locker, and there was one item in her storage locker that she always wanted to get out, but she never got a chance to. It was a framed print of her grandmother. There was no way I was going to leave it behind, as I definitely see her in the print. I had it shipped back here. Having been in a storage locker for some time, it needed a bit of restoration. I knew right where to bring it, no second thoughts. I brought it in, and asked the best way to do it? Did it need to be matted? Did it need a new frame? He told me it didn't need a new frame. It had a nice retro frame. He could've easily upsold me into a newer, more modern frame, but he didn't. I appreciate that Looking at it again, the current frame it has is perfect for the print. For restoration, what he recommended, was instead of a full mat, he put in spacers to keep the print off the glass. He also put in a brand new UV glass over the front to keep it from fading, and he even re-papered and re-cabled the back. He did all of this for under 100 bucks. He said it would take about a week, and it was ready a couple of days before that. I swung into the shop because I was in the neighborhood, and it was ready. I took one look at the print, and got very emotional, because it now looks like a brand... new.... Print. He did an amazing job of restoration, and just looking at it just blew me away. Thank you, thank you, thank you... What can I say, I will be back.
