Art Diaspora

If you are looking for a nice piece of art… look no further. At Art Diaspora you will find the piece that you’re looking for. Likewise, if you’re not looking for a piece of art, that will change once you walk into the store. All of the art is absolutely breath-​taking!!! The owner, Ramon, finishes and frames each piece with such excellene. Ramon is also very friendly and definitely knows art genre and artist style. He does not try to push a sale on you for the art work speaks for itself. Also, his prices are very fair. The only negative that I found is that if you are not from the area and need your art work shipped; it is quite pricey. However, that’s not the fault of Ramon but rather the mailing system.

My husband and I have been to Art Diaspora several times as we’ve walked through Old Town. So when we purchased a few prints outside of the shop we took them to Ramon a couple of years ago and he gave us a great deal on the backing and framing. After purchasing a couple of more prints, we knew that Ramon was the go to guy. Not only did he remember us a couple years later, but he gave us a fantastic deal that would have been double the cost at any other place. He’s always looking out for his customers and takes good care of them. We always know that he’ll give us his best work and that we can trust in the quality of his craftsmanship. We’ll never go any other place for art and framing.

This was a surprising and fantastic find! Great selection, great service. A must visit!

I was shopping for a protrait for our bedroom, and stumbled upon this art gallery, skeptical thinking there’s no way I can afford to buy anything in the shop. Boy was I wrong, the art is affordable and there are some beautiful pieces. Ramon the owner was warm and very welcoming. Ramon provided great ideas regarding frames and what piece of art would match, you can tell he loves what he does and it shows. Ramon pays attention to detail. If you are ever in downtown Temecula check out the art gallery you will not be disappointed. I will defintely be returning for some more art pieces.

My husband and I were walking through Old Towne Temecula, and came upon Art Diaspora. When we walked into the store, we were approached by a very nice man who ended up being the owner. He asked if there was anything in particular we were looking for and said to let him know if we had any questions. We ended up buying a couple pieces of artwork that day. We have gone back there quiet a bit and manged to buy enough of his art to do our entire house. Ramon has been exceptional from the beginning. He was nice enough on our last purchase to even deliver it to us since we didn’t have a big enough vehicle we could put the artwork in. We will definitely go back when we need or want more artwork. Thanks Ramon for making us feel like family.

Great shop and great location! Ramon is a true gentleman and expert in his field. If you demand quality when it comes to framing and mounting of fine art, Ramon is the man and Art Diaspora is the location!

The owner was more than accommodating in our visit. We just happened to stop by and after seeing the talent in his work we had to purchase. Excellent customer service by an excellent person.

Ramon is like a brother to me. In fact, he’s a brother from another mother. Kidding aside, he does great work and is passionate about the quality he puts into it. I purchased a number of framed scenes from him (approx 10) and love everyone of them. I live in a studio in Redondo Beach and spread my walls with his art work. I swap them out once in a while with another of his masterpieces just for a different change of scenery. The picture looks alive (better than standard framing) because of the coating he puts on and are structurally sound because he uses real wood as the framing. I get many compliments from people who stop by my place. Also, you can give him a poster and he will do the rest. I just recently gave him a 2 posters and just can’t wait to get them back all framed. Also, his prices are very reasonable.
Give him a try and I’m sure you will be amazed of his work.

Strolling through Old Town Temecula, we were just about to head back to the car when we saw this shop. Ramon was really friendly, easy to talk to, and helpful. No pressure. He’s clearly passionate about what he does, and he knows his stuff. When it comes to framing, he puts a unique spin on the display. We ended up leaving with a really nice piece, and actually got a discount on another smaller piece. We’ll definitely be back.

Another cramped store but there were definitely some artwork which were rather nice. The subject matter differed — there were scenery, portraits, abstract — and you have to manoeuver into the store and way back into the ‘cavernous’ vault which the store proudly states outside its doors.
The building used to be a bank and Art Diaspora’s back room is where the bank’s vault used to be.
There is also a bunch of scented candles which give off this wonderfully appetizing aroma as they are all food related scents. The store and the one next door (La Table de Provence) has the same owner so you are able to walk from one shop to the next through an open section between the walls.
