From the usual touristy tee-shirts to the carefully curated items of candles, chocolates, nuts, soaps and jewelry made by the locals living in the Sunshine Coast.

I discovered Native Art Renaissance Gallery through their painting workshop program…read more Upon entering the gallery, the heigh ceiling and bright space welcomes you. Big and small paintings with bright vivid rich colors complete their walls. They feature work by multiple Indigenous artists and offer a variety of goods. In addition to the paintings (in canvas and more), prints, and wooden sculptures, they also have fashion items such as shirts, shoes, scarves, hats, and even jewelry pieces. There are plenty of parking (street and parkade) options around the area. Although most street parking has a 2 hour maximum, there is a parkade at the back (enter from Victoria) that allows for longer parking. If you're in the area, it's worthwhile stop for art enthusiasts and collectors alike.

I have been a fibre artist for many years and my artwork requires special framing so the fabric…read morewon't fade over the years. Its also challenging to frame because of the many many little pieces of fabric that cover the canvas and continue over the edges of the canvas. I found Urban Art early in this process and I'm SO glad I did! I have stuck with them over the years and the many different locations and will continue to do so. The quality of work is outstanding and the service is above and beyond. Choosing just the right frame often takes awhile but they are always helpful with good advice and lots of patience. I will absolutely be sticking with Urban Art for all my framing needs in the future.

I am crazy confused. How does this place not get written about by every visitor to Orcas??…read more You've seen the driveway entrance to their place from the main highway. Giant, shiny, reflective, metal spinning imploding-then-exploding undulating spikey flower-like moving sculptures. That may be a clunky way of describing it, but I bet you know what I'm talking about now. Going up [their] long driveway, I felt like I was going to somebody's house for a visit. Yowza, I wish I lived here! Nestled at the end of the road, lies a small house, a small studio for the more delicate sculptures and a large "yard" interspersed with moving metal. I didn't take pictures of the studio's sculptures, and frankly, my iPhone photos really don't capture how magnificent the outside moving sculptures are. These larger pieces adorning the meadow, powered by wind and continued momentum are astounding. Some are free-standing, some attached to trees. All are fascinating to watch--I was nearly hypnotized by some of the more complicated ones. Shiny, shiny. If I had $2K - $10K to spend on these, I totally would. They are stunning. Everybody should have one in their yard. You will love it and tell all your friends about this place after seeing it for yourself! Just gorgeous.

I love Anthony's work. He does large pieces as well as wall pieces. Everytime I visit Orcas Island…read moreI make a special visit to his sculpture garden. HIs large items are in the $3K-8K range (I think) and are quite reasonable for what you are getting.
