Ten years ago we opened our doors and began showing some of Whidbey Island’s finest professional artists. Four months later the financial crises and resulting recession gave us unprecedented challenges trying to establish ourselves. We worked hard, went out of our way to present monthly changing exhibitions that showcased the incredible talent that resides among us, and gradually were able to become one of the premier galleries on Whidbey.
Bruce Morrow Changeling
oil on canvas 42" x 36" $2,100
Buffy Cribbs Western Tanagers
acrylic on acrylic 31.5" x 21" $1,850
Sharon Spencer Winter Song

Sharon Spencer The Embrace

We attracted more established artists with reputations far beyond the island. Painters and sculptors with regional and national reputations. Internationally known glass artists began showing with us, and a few years later we won ‘Best Gallery in Western Washington’ several years in a row, beating 186 other galleries in the competition..
Penelope Crittenden Feathered Torso
