Secession Art & Design Blog

For all of you that waited until the last minute, Secession will save the day! Our affordable art ticks all the boxes for a gift for someone who loves SF, Sutro, and super-local Bernal.

Our shipping window has ended, but for locals (within 80 miles), I can deliver large-scale art to your doorstep. Have you been staring at a big wall in your home that would look more festive with a piece by a local artist?

Secession Art & Design has a whimsical gift guide for those on your list that love animals. Artist Hilary Williams captures a quiet moment where the elk graze the grass and gaze at the ocean. Poet Silvi Alcivar's butterfly art is a thoughtful pairing with her words "push me into the trees again." Joshua Coffy's series "Travel Freely" of hand-painted birds and nostalgic FastPasses is a creative bridge between nature and the urban world. These are all one-of-a-kind for personal artful gifting. 

A favorite tradition in my family is choosing a record and having a dance party. We must be a sight for neighbors walking by, watching us get our groove on. Our vinyl collection prints by Bughouse are almost sold out, but a few are left from the pop-up. For the t-shirt fan, you can get a guitar or drumset on a tee that is soft to the touch. What is your favorite album of all time?

Thank you to everyone who came out to our Gift Art Pop-up and bought art! I loved getting to catch up with each and every one of you. My heart is warm from hearing how Secession Art & Design has had meaning in your life. I also was a proud curator mama, watching Luca be so engaged with showing customers all the paintings. Whenever someone walked into the gallery he would shout "Hello, hello, hello!"
