Among the earliest craftspeople in Canada to set up a studio and to make a living by selling their work were Erica and Kjeld Deichmann. Although many potters since have become full-fledged professionals, the Deichmanns were the pathfinders. Their careers span a critical period - from 1935 until Kjeld's death in 1963 - that represents a turning point in the history of crafts in Canada. It was the point at which the traditional crafts gave birth to the crafts as an artistic endeavour.
Since 1970, Peter Powning has lived and worked as an artist in the hills of southern New Brunswick. His life is characterized by intense periods of work preparing for exhibitions and commissions, punctuated by periodic travel. While Powning’s award-winning work is shown internationally, it is imbued with qualities distilled from a life lived close to the silence, space and seasonal rhythms of his home, the fields, forests and shorelines of Canada’s east coast.

Storytelling is the most essential device for Inuit artists. Mythical stories involving all living things as special characters. These sculptural pieces are carved from a variety of traditional materials including soapstone, walrus tusks and, occasionally, jade.
Inuit graphic art began in the 1950's. Subject matter may range from mythological figures to stories of Inuit life both past and present. Inuit interactions with the landscape, wildlife and each other greatly influence their art in technique as well as narrative.

Dr. Martin L. (Marty) Demaine (born 1942) is an artist and mathematician, the Angelika and Barton Weller artist in residence at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Martin Demaine is the father of MIT Computer Science professor and MacArthur Fellow Erik Demaine; in 1987 (when Erik was six) they together founded the Erik and Dad Puzzle Company which distributed puzzles throughout Canada. Erik was home-schooled by Martin, and although Martin never received any higher degree than his high school diploma, his home-schooling catapulted Erik to a B.S. at age 14 and a Ph.D. and MIT professorship at age 20, making him the youngest professor ever hired by MIT. Demaine has 3 pieces of mathematical origami in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York; Martin and Erik are also featured in the movie Between the Folds, a documentary on modern origami.

This album features both fun, bright country scenes full of bright colours, but also more subdued "at peace" scenes, and everything in between. These artworks are ideal for any room, especially those with a "old-timey" or country theme or feel. They're also ideal for (insulated and heated) barns.
Pieces that feature various animals, mainly from the Canadian wilderness or farm life.
Cool ocean breezes, calm lapping lakes and fun beach days can be found in this collection. These peaces are quite ideal for cottages, beach/lake houses, or simply for those who love the beauty found within the changing characteristics of water. Water can portray serenity, power, diligence, and flexibility, even when it's only paint.

Our collection of the artist's favorite subject. Figure Studies are as large a tradition as the still life or the landscape. Images of the body celebrate its beauty in both shape and movement, capturing both image and spirit.
Florals can add elegance and timeless beauty to any room with delicate lines and a multitude of colours.
Period pieces are often those which are Victorian (or earlier) in spirit. Many of our period pieces are true pieces from the 19th century, some of which are in their original, antique frames. Both regal and elegant, these gorgeous paintings are timeless.
Sometimes a room needs a grand statement, or a flashy piece to bring the entire room together. This could mean loud abstracts, extraordinarily unique imagery or an interesting take on a subject.
Featured here are works belonging to various First Nations/People's tribes of North America, which still exist today. Due to the numerous tribes, we can not usually identify the tribe of origin. If you are sure of an artist's tribe, please notify us as we would like to respect and celebrate their tribe's unique style.
Although small, these small works of art lack neither the impact nor personality of larger paintings. Many in this collection are incredibly detailed, and all made with great attention and care, and are good for travelling both near and far.
