My experience at this "fabulous" gallery is truly unforgettable. First, they were so excited when they received my artwork for auction. One of their appraisers or so called "expert" was asking me fees to appraise a simple painting that they couldn't identify after i have waited for more than six months. They were so "efficient" and unbelievably smart that they need to ask other galleries opinion. My ordeal at this gallery made the whole thing so stunning! Lol! They have lack of courtesy, poor communication, and unprofessional. Totally waste of time. James D Julia auction galleries also located
