Explore our World of Art

The village of Mendocino, located on the remote and beautiful Northern California Coast, is home to a thriving arts community. This community includes the Mendocino Art Center, plus other fine galleries and studios. Many artists working in a wide range of media call the Mendocino Coast their home.

This site features the work of several artists whose work is featured at Zacha's Bay Window Gallery. Feel free to browse the hundreds of images. Generally, the work represented here is for sale, although some pieces are originals or limited edition prints which may not be available.

While we strive to make the images on the site as true to life as possible, no small jpeg file can capture the subtlety of a painting or a sculpture.

William Zacha

Bill Zacha worked in several media and styles. Not only is he well known and respected as an artist, he's also the founder of the Mendocino Art Center. His work includes watercolors and sketches from Mendocino and his travels around the world, plus a series of bronze sculptures.

Hilda Pertha

A highly regarded painter and teacher of art skills, Hilda Pertha uses a variety of media and a remarkably wide range of styles in her work, which includes abstracts, landscapes, and botanical images.

Toshi & Hiroshi Yoshida

Toshi Yoshida was known primarily for his woodblock prints, but he was also a remarkable painter and illustrator. His work ranges from realistic landscapes to imaginative abstract designs to detailed portraits of animals in their environments.

Toshi was part of the second generation of the Yoshida family to work in the woodblock medium. Both his father, Hiroshi, and mother, Fujio, were artists and printmakers. Toshi was masterful at depicting the charm of ordinary Japanese life. Occasionally he depicted famous landmarks, but his prints tend to focus on the human element rather than the monumental.
