Pup with the Peal Earring by Kay Yoo

Hello friends!
We hope you've had a good start to the new year so far and that this finds you healthy and well. We've been busy creating and working on things which will continue to make local art accessible. In light of that, we're excited to announce that we have a fun event scheduled for March!  

Many of you have met Kay Yoo on the other side of the counter at AZ Handmade Gallery, but she's also a photographer! Kay photographs pets and makes adorable twists on classic art with a touch of puppy charm (such as The Pup with the Pearl Earring above). Her cards are among the most popular in the gallery and many people have asked if their own pet can be the subject of such a masterpiece - and now they can!

On March 20th, Kay will be in the gallery with a photo booth where you can bring your dog to be photographed. Then, she will add their likeness to the art piece of your choice, immortalizing your furry friend in baroque glamor forever! Digital images of the photoshoot and your dog in the painting, as well as a four-pack of cards, will be included in the package, and prints and additional cards can be purchased through Kay as well. Price per dog is $75. Sign up for a session at our online store. Just like any other time you would come in, masks will be required (for you, not your dog).

We look forward to seeing you and meeting some of your pets in the gallery!

Welcoming Leo Feeney

​We're excited to add the work of Leo Feeney to the gallery. Leo has been making fine jewelry for decades, has shown in renowned galleries throughout the Southwest, and has even had his work sold in Sundance magazine! Reflecting regional motifs, his signature cluster style sets colorful stones in sterling silver with symmetry and precision. Leo lives with his family right here in Flagstaff. Come by the gallery to see (and try on) his work! A selection of his jewelry is available through our online store as well.
