Long before landscapes, still lifes, and abstract art filled our homes, artists were fascinated by the human face.

And thousands of years later, we still are.

There’s something powerful about portraiture. A single expression can spark curiosity, evoke a memory, or stop us in our tracks without saying a word.

In Kyle Ringquist’s work, familiar faces become something more. Through bold color, layered texture, and a contemporary approach to portraiture, each piece feels both timeless and unmistakably modern.

Swipe through and spend a moment with each one.

There’s something unmistakably summer about being on the water.

“Top of The Mast” by Kyle Ringquist transports you to a day spent sailing. The breeze. The horizon. The promise of adventure.

The best paintings don’t just show you a place.

They make you feel like you’re there.

Kyle invites you to imagine yourself aboard, remembering those perfect summer moments when time seems to slow down.

Hi, I’m Nicole! Personality Hire and Gallery Manager of Galaray House.

I have loved art my whole life. Colors, creativity, photography, design…it’s just always been my thing.

These days my favorite part of the job is helping people find a piece they truly connect with, something that feels just right for their home.

When I’m not at the gallery, I’m soaking up every second of summer or wishing it was summer. I’m always planning my next trip to Europe, out on a boat, watching the sunset, with my family, or watching some type of sport.I run entirely on mexican food iced lattes and ice cream. I’m also the favorite auntie

If you ever want to talk art, travel, or just come see what we have at the gallery, come find me in SoWa!

Hi, I’m Molly. Founder and Director of Galaray House and a mom of three little kids.

I’ve been fascinated by art my whole life, but what really hooked me in art school wasn’t just making it. It was the critique. The moment when ten people look at the same piece and see ten completely different things. That’s what I loved!

Now I get to do it every single day.

When Ray and I started Galaray House, we built something we genuinely believed in: a gallery where the stories behind the work are just as important as the work itself. Because you don’t need to understand art to love art.

A little about me so we can skip straight to friends:

🎨 Abstract florals in every color imaginable — I can’t explain the attraction, but also sometimes you don’t have to

👗 Always in a dress. Always. I’ve loved the way they spin since I was five and I still do

🌊 Spring Lake summers — it’s just what summer means to me

🍦 Soft serve with rainbow sprinkles — I’m a New York girl, so Stew Leonard’s soft serve will have my whole heart always

🥗 Girl lunch for breakfast, lunch and dinner: Caesar salad, and a chilled glass of white wine please and thank you

☕ Iced latte with almond milk, lots of ice

💙 My interior love right now is anything powder blue and pops of color — obsessed

Whether you’re hunting for the perfect piece or just wandering in because something caught your eye, there’s no pressure, no pretension, just really good art and people who can’t wait to tell you about it.

Hi, I’m Ray! Founder & Director of Galaray House.

Confession: galleries used to intimidate me.

The feeling that everyone else understood something I didn’t.

For years, I walked right past gallery doors.

That experience stuck with me. When Molly Rappoli and I started Galaray House, we built the kind of gallery we wished existed: welcoming, approachable, and free from the idea that art is only for a select few.

Because great art shouldn’t make you feel uncomfortable. It should make you feel something special.

And since we’re getting acquainted, here’s a little about me:

🎨 Art, obviously
☕ Strong coffee (the stronger, the better)
📚 More books than time to read them
✈️ Exotic travel and long haul planes, even when I’m not the one boarding
🧢 Flat brim hats
🍸 Dirty martinis that look more like swamp water than cocktails
🎶In Taylor Swift’s top 0.005% of listeners globally

Whether you’re a seasoned collector or someone who’s never stepped foot in a gallery, you’re welcome here.

That’s kind of the whole point.

At first glance, “Night Shift” feels like a study in architecture, light, and atmosphere.

Look a little closer.

David Redfield has hidden something within the composition, a subtle detail that changes the way you experience the piece once you notice it.

That’s part of what makes collage such a compelling art form. Unlike traditional painting, collage allows artists to bring together fragments of different places, times, and stories, creating new narratives that couldn’t exist otherwise. The medium invites discovery, asking viewers to slow down, make connections, and participate in the work themselves.

David Redfield embraces that tradition masterfully. His collages aren’t consumed in a single glance. They unfold over time, revealing unexpected details, hidden narratives, and moments of surprise.

We won’t spoil this one.

Tell us when you find it. 👀

We hear people ask all the time:

“How did they think of that?”

And that’s especially true with the art of David Redfield.

His collages are built from hundreds of carefully considered choices. Vintage imagery, unexpected juxtapositions, and layered narratives come together to create works that feel both familiar and impossible to place.

The longer you look, the more connections begin to emerge. A detail you missed. A new interpretation. A completely different story.

That’s the beauty of great collage.

It never stops revealing itself.

Not every painting is meant to be understood immediately.

“Temporal Freeway” by David Redfield invites you into a world where memory, imagination, and time seem to overlap. Through layers of vintage imagery and mixed media collage, the familiar becomes unfamiliar, encouraging viewers to create their own narrative.

The best artworks don’t reveal everything at once and they leave room for interpretation. This piece keeps you coming back for another look. Years after bringing it home, you’ll still be finding something new.

In painting, pentimento is what shows through. It’s the ghost of an earlier mark, an earlier decision.

In this statement piece, Sirarpi makes that the subject.

Every detail tells two stories at once. Look deeper at “Pentimento” by Sirarpi Heghinian Walzer.

We’re wired to look for ourselves in art.

That’s part of what makes figurative painting so compelling.

A gesture. A glance. A posture. Even when we don’t know the subject, we recognize something familiar in them.

In the hands of Sirarpi Heghinian Walzer, the figure becomes more than a portrait. Her paintings invite us into quiet moments of reflection, capturing both the physical presence and inner world of her subjects.

Swipe through to explore a selection of figurative works by Sirarpi.
