Figures and Portraits will feature work of the human figure and portraits as seen through the eyes of a variety of our gallery artists including new work to the gallery from John Parnell and Carl White. John Parnell introduces over 12 new pieces to the gallery and this exhibition after selling out all of his significant work in December/January.

Local Artist Peter Von Thiesenhausen’s exhibition at the Art Gallery of Alberta is getting terrific reviews. Here in the gallery we have 3 of Peter’s pieces including “In Trinate Robur”. If you are in Edmonton this long weekend, visit the AGA. If I’m GP, stop in. https://www.youraga.ca/exhibitions/songs-for-pythagoras

My neighbours at Sole Addiction made a comment on the first photo as the DHT building being their location. Nearest I can tell, our doorway is the underneath the sign of the the Woolworths store. It appears 3 buildings now make up our current building. I do get the occasional person in reminiscing about the lunch counter. Last photo from 1966.

7 new pieces from RFM McInnis now in the gallery. Robert is one of our highly recognized and respected Canadian artists we represent. We get asked a few times a year for art representing the oilfield industry. 2 of the 7 landscapes are exactly that. We also have an art lease program where your business can write off the artwork. So keep that in mind at tax time as you right that cheque to Justin and his buddy Morneau, you could have original art instead.

Happy Valentine’s Day. Love is everywhere here in the gallery.

Pottery makes a beautiful and lasting Valentines gift. We carry the work of 4 amazing Alberta potters. Open until 5:30 today.

Valentine’s Day is a few days away. Get her flowers that will never wilt or die. Laurie Koss has had her artwork featured on Canadian currency and stamps from Canada Post. We are very proud to carry art from nationally recognized artists.

-7! It’s like spring out there. No more -40 and 51cm of fresh snow to battle. Our John Snow exhibition is up and very successful despite the weather with 8 pieces sold. These are a couple of my personal favorites. Free parking downtown today. Come see us.

Love is Sacred. Happy Valentines Day! This new piece from Jay Bell Redbird is new to the gallery and the smallest we have received to date. This is a beautiful Valentines gift. It is acrylic on canvas 12 x 24.

New work from Heather Pant is in the gallery! Heather is an amazing artist and we are very excited to carry her work. Heather was featured in the same Arabella Magazine and another one of our artists Erica Hawkes.

When it comes to Tim Heimdal’s work, many remember this mural while many have never seen it. This photo shows the massive painting of Kakwa Falls. More has changed than stayed the same in these 30 years.

Our John Snow exhibit is off to a great start despite 51 cm of snow and -40. We have also added a great selection of unframed pieces starting at $250. Prices are very affordable for original work from a high level Canadian Artist. This print was done in 1987, near the end of his career and is one of the new additions.
