Visiting Artist - Neal Salove

What's in the Gallery Now?

Growing up my dad didn't get to make a lot of art. Now that he is retired, he is creating a lot and I asked him to send me some work to see if it will be a hit in Key West. Of course, he said yes to his Florida "debut."

Do you love Neal's style but don't see the one you want? There are more available, let's get you connected!

Read about Neal Salove below.

Born and raised in Idaho, Neal Salove found ways to be creative in his shop. Jessica can still remember sneaking into his shop while he was out working a field and admiring all of his cool tools. Growing up in a farming and ranching family, then running his own large farm while raising a family of his own, he didn't get to spend much time creating. He fulfilled his creative urges through the years by building items to use around the home (beds, tables, etc.) until he eventually discovered intarsia and began to hone his craft.

Intarsia is the art of using the natural colors and grain patterns of the wood to form an image. Everything Neal creates is cut with a scroll saw. He cuts, sands and fits it all by hand. A true handcrafted work of art made in America. Now that he is retired, he sells his work in art events around the Pacific Northwest, and hopefully, now here in Key West at TooKEY's Gallery.
