Studios & Galleries
There's nothing quite like encountering an artist on his or her own turf: cup of tea in one hand, and paintbrush or chisel in the other. Many British Columbia artists open up their homes and studios to visitors, welcoming you into their own creative world. Be sure to take advantage of this unique, and often unforgettable, experience. Please take note of studios that ask you call before visiting.

Jane Appleby Art Gallery957 Brunette Ave
"I am inspired by the beauty around me and life itself. I paint in response to what I see and feel about a subject by letting the paintbrush lead me. Within the colourful and vibrant expressions I also attempt to establish a certain harmony within the body of the painting. I respond to my inner spirit and hope that this also is depicted in the image. I hope that my art brings a joy to the viewer similar to which I created it with." - Jane

My latest series of paintings is from the coastline and Islands in the North Sea.
