Dynamic Diane

Diane L. Johnson-Mendes is the owner and one of the artists at Studio 74 an art gallery in the Tower District  for local art and emerging artists in Fresno, California. She was welcoming to my husband and I on our recent visit to her gallery. She is currently showing plein air paintings from the San Joaquin Valley.  She also has a nice mix of other art, jewelry, and photography in her gallery. Diane gets you in the mood to enjoy art and is open for questions about  restaurants or stores in the Fresno area. The night we arrived the media was about to take photos of Diane at the opening of ArtHop. She still made time for customers. Fresno is lucky to have such an enthusiastic gallery owner.
