Created in 1990, Alta Vista Gallery is more than art…it's an experience. We hope you can come here in person someday, to experience…

• Our historic property in Valle Crucis, NC. Only 10 minutes from Boone. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
• Sitting in our porch swing or purple porch rockers to enjoy the mountain views.
• Hundreds of paintings in various styles and mediums by over 100 artists, such as:

• Will Moses (heir to Grandma Moses)
• B. Jean Baird
• Joan Sporn
• Tonya Bottomley
• Jean Pollock
• Ron Skelton
• William Mangum
• Bennette Rowan
• Dean White
• Frank Wilson
• Shelia Hancock
• Brennen McElhaney

Check out the work of our newest artist whose hand-turned wood designs, created from trees that have fallen here in the High Country, would make exceptionally lovely gifts. Flanigan gives these trees a new life by turning dead trees into beautiful, gleaming bowls!

• Mike Flanigan

Plus:   Handmade Kaleidoscopes, Jewelry, Stained-Glass, and the nationally-acclaimed works of Mangum Pottery and Motawi Tiles

As you view the "GALLERY ROOMS" pages of art on this website, please note:

This is just a sampling of the art that we have here! Since Alta Vista Gallery represents about 100 artists, we can't show everything on-line.

If you need a piece in a specific size or colors, tell me, and we can create it!

Also, we offer LAY-AWAYS for up to one year, to help you with your planning!

We accept VISA, MasterCard, and American Express. We ship via UPS.

Thanks for visiting my website. I hope you're enjoying it, and I hope to see you here in person someday soon! Until then, please call me with your requirements or questions, or email me at:  altavista@skybest.com.
