Dear fans:
The Frazetta art museum has now opened. Almost two years after the initial ground breaking this beautiful gallery will be the new home for many of Franks famous oil paintings, pen and inks, and watercolors. There are some new additions to the museum that few people have had the privilege of seeing up close, the Massai Warrior and the fabulous lion painting, both of which are massive in size in comparison to Franks other oils.

The final stage: preparing the site for grass.

The lion painting was recently finished left handed by Frank and both have hung on the walls of Frank and Ellies home since originally done, one in the late 50's and the other in the early 60's. The Death Dealer and Barbarian series are just a few of the masterpieces hanging on display for the world to see in the museum. There is over 2000 square feet of viewing area with an adjacent room, the gallery store for purchasing limited editions, books, posters and possible some original art. No matter how far you are traveling from, your visit to the gallery will surely be a memorable one. To see the vibrant colors of Franks art up close is just one of the many reasons why his art is loved by fans throughout the world. The museum interior has been laid out perfectly by Franks wife Ellie. She has worked diligently and spent countless hours arranging the art all through the museum. It looks so simple when the work is finally completed , but Ellie has spent weeks setting the interior design up so it will one for you to admire.
The Museum hours will be Saturdays from 11am-4pm est from spring till fall. No one is permitted on the premises at any other time without permission from Frank or Ellie personally. We please ask you to abide by these hours, anyone who enters the property other than normal business hours will be considered trespassing.
