Art restorations by Dennis Garcia (B.A., M.F.A.) of Gemini Restoration.  Dennis has restored art since 1981.

He is currently restoring a large painting by Ben Sears that is in the collection of the Tuolumne County Museum.  The painting is estimated to be over 100 years old.  Dennis has also been contracted to clean and restore the Museum’s entire collection.  When completed, the Ventana Gallery and the Tuolumne County Museum will have a joint celebration reception and viewing of all the collection open to the public.

His progress is being videotaped by Rod Garside of local Cable Channel 8 for future broadcast:
