On a recent visit to Napa, California I visited the Di Rosa Collection.
Imagine buying land in Napa in the Sixties, hanging@out at Univ of CA at Davis with the likes of William Wiley, Bill Arneson and learning to make wine.
That was the start of this vast, wonderful and personal collection of art and sculpture.
I hope you get a chance to visit in person.
Cheers

About ruthoffen
Created by, Ruth Offen the founder/director of WaterWorks Gallery, a gallery opened in 1985 to showcase contemporary artists and jewellers that live and work in the Pacific Northwest. The gallery is on an San Juan Island in the Salish Sea.[ North Puget Sound] Pretty amazing place.
While continuing to curate the gallery after 33 years, I'm decided to spend more time enjoying life by traveling, creating art with photography and dancing tango.
Over many decades of amassing a personal art collection, now the process of downsizing is becoming a reality. How do we have more with less? Staying true to the motto, unencumbered by our possessions and not burdening our children with our stuff. This next process will take patience and courage.
