About Us

Born from the need to showcase local art, we created an online gallery that connects artists with collectors, now offering both an online marketplace and a physical space to experience original, hand-painted artwork.

Our Story

The idea for our gallery was born at a friend’s party, where local artists were displaying and selling their work. Later that night, curiosity led to an online search for a place to browse and buy local art—only to find that no such marketplace existed. The next morning, we set out to change that, launching an online gallery dedicated to showcasing and selling original, hand-painted artwork by local artists.

What began as a simple solution to an overlooked problem soon grew into something much bigger. The overwhelming response from artists and buyers alike led to the opening of a physical gallery, giving art lovers the chance to experience the works in person while still benefiting from the convenience of an online marketplace. Today, we continue to bridge the gap between artists and collectors, making original art more accessible than ever.

We connect art enthusiasts with exceptional local artists by offering a curated gallery experience—both online and in-person.

Our mission is to celebrate unique, hand-crafted artwork while supporting local talent and enriching communities.
