The Gallery at Round Top and Comforts are south central Texas foremost galleries and represent some of the nation's leading artists and artisans. It is easily accessible from the large cities in Texas and as stated by one patron, "I would have to go to at least 6 galleries in Santa Fe to find what I find in this one gallery."
How We Got Started
Round Top is an arts destination. We opened the gallery in this charming 1850's town, hoping to reach clients from around the nation who seek quality art and personal service.

Seriously? I don't negotiate price. We do not mark prices up in order to discount them.

I have a degree in art, took additional business and marketing classes, and years of experience in direct marketing of artwork. As well, I worked with a professional art/business consultant, Calvin Goodman, for 25 years.
