Specialties
At Blakely Art Collection, we believe original art should feel personal and approachable. Our gallery is built around a love for painting, whether that’s landscapes inspired by the Bob Ross tradition, modern realism, or imaginative one-of-a-kind works. Each piece carries a story, and we enjoy sharing those stories with collectors and art lovers alike.
We feature a carefully curated collection of original paintings from both local and international artists, alongside works from our own studio. Styles range from peaceful natural scenes to bold and expressive contemporary pieces, with sizes and prices that make fine art accessible to both new collectors and seasoned enthusiasts.
We also offer painting classes and workshops for those who want to explore their own creativity. Beginners and experienced painters are equally welcome—our approach is supportive, hands-on, and focused on building skills while having fun.
Whether you’re looking to purchase a unique painting, learn new techniques, or simply enjoy being surrounded by art, the Blakely Art Collection is here to make the experience memorable and inspiring.
History
Established in 2017.
The Blakely Art Collection grew out of a simple love of painting and the joy of sharing that passion with others. What began as one artist’s journey into landscapes and traditional oil painting has developed into a growing collection that brings together works from friends, mentors, and fellow artists who inspire us.
Over time, the gallery has become more than just a place to showcase art. It’s a space where stories behind the paintings are celebrated, where collectors discover something meaningful, and where students of all ages can experience the process of creating art themselves. Our history is still being written, one brushstroke at a time.
