DeRu’s Fine Arts opened our first gallery in Bellflower in 1969. From this location, in addition to an art gallery, we handle our restoration and conservation services, our mail order book service and the shipping of art to our customers across the United States.
In 1996 we opened a second art gallery in
Laguna Beach, where each month a new exhibit can be viewed. You will find recent and upcoming events listed in the calendar section. A leader in the field, our galleries specialize in
Early American art, with emphasis
on the Early California Impressionist painters.
Our galleries feature paintings by artists such as
Edgar Payne, Maurice Braun,
William Wendt,
Jack Wilkinson Smith,
Conrad Buff,
Elmer Wachtel,
Anna Hills, and many others.
As the official representative for the Estate of Edgar Payne, we have many of his paintings and
drawings available.
We are proud of the fact that our paintings are all in great condition having been professionally cleaned and conserved in our own restoration studio. In addition to our own works, we do all of the cleaning and restoration of the Irvine Museum’s collection of paintings, numerous corporate collections as well as many art galleries across the United States. We guarantee our artwork to be authentic.
Both of our
art galleries offer a wide variety of paintings for all levels of collectors. We stock over 80 titles of
art reference books at both locations and offer free consulting services.
We are always looking to purchase paintings of the period. If you have paintings you are interested in selling, please
call us, or you may mail or email
an image along with the size, condition and any pertinent information about the artwork. Be sure to include information on how and when we may contact you.
