This is my favorite of the many galleries in Cannon Beach. The large selection and variety of art should satisfy any art lover. I especially liked the bronze works of Georgia Gerber. The owner was very knowledgeable and friendly.

My wife and I had a great experience here in May. Very surprised to see some people's view is the exact opposite, the husband and wife owners both took the time to explain and give info on the art we were looking at. Never once heard or saw anything with other people also in the gallery. Amazing photos by local Christopher Burkett have to be seen in person to be believed!!

As I viewed the photographs and asked for detail on the technique used by the photographer, I was verbally attacked by both people minding the gallery. I felt like a wolf spider had jumped out of the corner desk and attacked me. When I tried to apologize for any imagined offense, neither stopped to listen but escalated their attacks and chased my entire party out and were told to never return because "I never forget a face."This experience was startling and upsetting.I am not Asian, so I don't feel race was an issue. They simply act like deranged people.

Visitor beware. My experience was this gallery is extremely unfriendly. More than just cold I experienced them as actively anti visitor to their gallery. Before I pulled out my wallet I found it necessary to double check their selling statements. Oh dear no, life is too short. So many friendly and lovely galleries in Cannon Beach.

Wow, sad to read that so many people had a bad experience at this gallery. My experience wasn't bad overall, until at the end when the man working there accused me of taking photos and that I should "ask next time". I didn't take any photos! I only took my phone out to check my messages. I felt uncomfortable, being monitored so closely and falsely accused. I was even thinking of buying a painting and decided to go home and sleep on it.. but the negative interaction I had with the man at the end made me never want to return to this gallery. How sad, it really is a nice gallery with some lovely art. Owners, if you're reading this: you would benefit from being nicer to your patrons.

My experience was vastly different than the majority of other Yelpers. I was greeted upon entry, engaged in fabulous conversation with the artist and gentleman who owns the gallery, and had a delightful experience. Excited to see several pieces of art from Laura O'Brien, an acquaintance of mine, and when I asked if I could snap a picture, he immediately said yes. Art is personal and I'm searching for a large piece in certain colors with movement...I know...this means something only to me, which is the point. So while I was empressed with several pieces, there wasn't anything there that day that would work in my space but I'll definitely stop back in whenever I'm in Cannon Beach.Located on N Spruce 2 shops down from the Chocolate Cafe, it's a bit off the main path but worth walking over to this park of town.

I bought my first sculpture here. I had stopped into this gallery many times over the years. The last time my heart stopped when I walked in and was bewitched by a beautiful bronze by Ann Fleming. The owner was so fun to talk to. It was a slow day there so I did have her attention and an obvious sale. However she has always been personable each time I've been in.

I asked about the artist and then asked if I could take a photo of the artist name in the store. The owner didn’t tell me I couldn’t or objected at all. When I asked about another artist and whet to document the name the same way he was very abrupt and then told me he would give me the artist name and bio then said he felt uncomfortable for me to take a second photo ????. I followed him to the other room to get it the bio without hesitation. Then he said he’d been there 30+ years and felt uncomfortable giving me any information. The owners should have better customer service. I had no issues putting on a mask even though it’s not required to make them feel comfortable so maybe they can not be rude to customers who visit them in exchange. I have seen the other reviews of them doing this so it is something that continues to happen. Too bad as I buy artwork all over the state and support local artist. BTW, they have the artist photos on the website so I just don’t get it.

The owner kicked my special needs son out of the gallery blaming him for customers not purchasing a very expensive piece. My son has autism and flapped his hands in front of the owner and she yelled at us. The owner is hateful and please avoid this place.

This is a wonderful gallery! Do not miss visiting when in Cannon Beach. The owners, Joyce and Bob, are very knowledgeable about art and artists, are well connected in the world of art, represent some of the BEST artists in the Northwest, and are delightful and smart people. Let them help you select something fabulous for an established collection or your first piece of great art!

We wondered in and were taken by the collection and the friendliness of the owners. They spent time chatting about the artists and various pieces. We left without buying anything, but literally ran back to purchase a sculpture that I couldn’t get out of my mind. Wonderful experience all the way around. Mask up and go in, you won’t be disappointed.

Rude, rude, rude! I was in the gallery wearing my mask while wearing my eyeglasses that were getting foggy so I was adjusting my mask. The woman working there (she's the owner, I think) immediately asked me to leave stating rudely that it's not her job to be the mask monitor. I was merely adjusting my mask so that I could fully cover my nose and my mouth. Never coming back. I was considering buying a piece. Other gallery owners have told me that this is their reputation ... rudeness!
