Artful Solutions understands that art has a unique value not only in our personal lives, but in professional environments as well. Art choices can impress upon clientele as to who your company is on a personal level, and just placing the right artistic pieces within the walls of an organization can state a corporation's philosophy. We strive to maximize that value by promoting the interaction between people and art in the everyday world.

Since 2000, Artful Solutions has specialized in procuring and placing high-quality works of art from multi-talented emerging and mid-career Bay Area and Regional artists in a wide range of public and private spaces.

Artful Solutions is headed by Shelley Barry, an artist, art educator, gallery owner, curator and fine art consultant with over 17 years of experience in the art industry. Shelley has served on the City of San Ramon's Arts Advisory Committee, assisting in the drafting of the Public Art Policy currently being considered by the City Council. She designed and launched the City’s First Community Art Banner Project in 2006 that has since been embraced as a yearly program, and is currently serving on the Board of Directors for the San Ramon Arts Foundation.
