Josephine Fletcher Spotlight

November 29 - December 20, 2025

We are thrilled to announce our next Spotlight Show, dedicated entirely to the vibrant and evocative work of Josephine Fletcher (Josi), the beloved Salt Spring Island painter whose landscapes pulse with the wild beauty of the West Coast.

Josi’s paintings are a celebration of colour and light, born from her deep connection to the landscapes that surround her. Nurtured amid the artistic community of Hornby Island and now thriving on Salt Spring, her bold, painterly strokes evoke the transcendental spirit of nature: arbutus groves bending in the wind, sandstone shores kissed by the sea, and the fleeting glow of a full moon over Fulford Harbour. Influenced by the Fauves and the quiet power of Emily Carr, her work is both masterful and deeply personal, a love letter to the Gulf Islands she calls home.

Since Josi joined our gallery's roster in 2022, her bold, unapologetic paintings have sparked lively (and sometimes heated!) conversations among artists, collectors, and visitors alike. Far from shying away, we’ve welcomed the energy! I’m absolutely delighted to share that Josi has just been awarded one of the top honours from the 2025 Salt Spring National Art Prize (SSNAP): the prestigious Salon des Refusés Solo Exhibition Prize. This remarkable recognition is a thrilling reaffirmation of the vision, courage, and sheer talent that first drew us to Josi’s work, and that continues to captivate (and occasionally provoke) everyone who steps in front of her canvases.

Josi will be at the gallery on Saturday November 29 to meet and greet from 11am to 3pm. Whether you’re a longtime admirer of Josephine’s transcendent visions or discovering her passion for the first time, please join us! Wine, warmth, and wonderful company guaranteed!

Ray Ward Spotlight

November 8 - November 29, 2025

It’s been a fantastic few months since we moved into our new space at 2530 Bevan Ave in Sidney. From hosting an almost sold-out relaunch exhibition in June, to supporting the Saanich Peninsula Health and Hospital Foundation in the sale of Robert Bateman’s original painting Blue Heron, to welcoming even more incredible local artists to our gallery roster, we truly couldn’t ask for more. And now, we’re absolutely thrilled to share that Ray Ward is once again sending us a stunning new portfolio of his oil paintings! He will be in the gallery this Saturday November 8 from 11am to 1pm.
