Tucson Art Gallery, Custom Framing
and Unique Whimsical Gifts
Sylvia Buchnan, a "pretty much native' Tucsonan, has owned Paloma Art Gallery for a little over 7 years. "And haven't I learned a few thing along the way!" she laughs. "But one thing I'm very proud of is that people come in the first for convenience, but they come back again and again and again for the service. They've said so, and isn't that wonderful? We want everyone leaving here with a bag in hand to feel good about their purchase. Their whole shopping experience, really. They're smiling, we're happy and best of all, we know they will be back.
Cindy Juliano has been a part of Paloma Art Gallery since the beginning. She says, "I love the creative aspect of this job. I like to arrange displays, to shop for new merchandise, and I really enjoy framing. For me, it's fun to think about the piece and work with the customer to get just the right look that will enhance their piece. We've had some really amazing artwork come through here! I like the challenge of unusually shaped or dimensional pieces, but simple pieces can be very rewarding too. To me, that's what makes the day worthwhile."
Joel Levine, is invaluable behind-the-scenes. “Yeah, they don’t let me out of the back. I just try to do what the gals tell me to. Keep ‘em happy.” Having “retired” for the second time he, “likes to stay active.” He’s got a good eye for design and cuts frames, mats and glass with an engineer’s precision. And once in a while, he brings in coffee!
