Erika Gardner Art

While we weren’t able to open our Plants and Pollinators show as scheduled, we have decided to go ahead and share our work with all of you online! This coming week, we will open up our show in a Facebook group where we will post all of the work we created for the original gallery show. We wanted to share now while our work is still fresh and spring is still in the air! ... Works will be available for purchase, but most importantly, I think this show is bright and beautiful and will definitely lift your spirits. I’m so looking forward to sharing this with all of you! Stay tuned for more information and a link to the group when it goes live!

So we are going to have to wait a little bit longer to open our show... Follow me on Instagram, I hope to do some sneak peeks and a giveaway soon (I just want things to settle a bit) @erikagardnerart Thanks for all the support!

I did it! I figured out how to make a separate insta account for art only content! Find me on Instagram @erikagardnerart Follow me and keep an eye open for a giveaway coming at’cha soon! (Once I figure out how to do that , baby steps people!)

Here’s a little sneak peek at something I’ve been working on for the Plants and Pollinators show. It’s only a few weeks away These little guys are 4x4, and so far I’ve got 9 ready to hang. I’ve been thinking of creating a separate Instagram account for art content only, curious if people would want to follow along on there? Maybe I’ll start things off with a little giveaway? Whatcha think?

Save the date. Opening night will take place on April 3rd! This poster features my latest work, come and see it in person at Pope Mountain Arts.

Hello I know, it’s been a minute since I’ve updated my page. Things have been going on behind the scenes all along, I’ve still been creating and playing in the studio, but I really just needed time to explore and create just for the fun of it. Taking that time helped immensely, I’ve been feeling more inspired than ever and it feels so good! So now, I’d like to share that I’ll be putting some work back out there into the world! I’ll be showing in a group show with 3 other ...local artists at Pope Mountain Arts this spring. The theme is Plants & Pollinators, so get ready to welcome some colour back into your lives after this long winter. Stay tuned for sneak peeks. The image in this poster is from one of my fellow artists Shara Walsh of SLS artistry

The show has come down and some paintings have found their new homes! Thank you so much to everyone who came out and supported our event! I am always so incredibly proud of our little town, people here are always looking for opportunities to lift each other up and celebrate all that we have to offer, it’s a special place I will only be headed to the printers a couple more times before Christmas, so if you’re on the fence about getting a print, no pressure... but ACT FAST! Seriously though, thanks so much for the love and encouragement!

So, I have finally found a printer in Northern BC that creates amazing archival quality prints! The prints are printed on acid free, heavy weight matte paper. If you would like a price list please let me know! The prints are made from professional scans or photographs of my original pieces, so if there’s a piece you love and want a print, let me know! I am also in the process of sourcing out a vendor to produce good quality poster prints, postcards and other fun stuff, which would be a more affordable option. I haven’t found what I am looking for yet, and don’t want to sell a subpar product, so I’ll keep ya posted!

Hello everyone! I just want to update you all about the opening of the "Other Worlds" art show.

She's done! This beast took months, but I still love her. "Filtered" 24"x36" acrylic on canvas. This is already sold, as it was a commissioned piece made with a specific person in mind. ... I am planning on making prints of this one, so if you're interested let me know! Cell phone pictures never do justice ... sooo you can see it in person this October...

Here's a little detail shot of a larger piece I'm working on, it's so close to being finished! It's time I let you know I've got something up my sleeve...I'll be taking part in a group show at Pope Mountain Arts this October. I am so looking forward to sharing the space with some local ladies! ... Stay tuned for the official announcement and more details!

Just finished this piece, mixed media on paper. I've been sneaking off to my studio as much as possible. Good things are happening

Work in progress... slowly but surely. Feelin' it and thought I'd share. I have 5 on the go right now. Trying to find balance between mom life and art life is tricky, but I'm only getting more and more fire in my belly.

Just wanted to let you guys know, I've been getting back into the studio and working through some new ideas. I'm loving where this is taking me. Stay tuned, I'm feeling inspired!

Hello everyone! I just wanted to give a send off to these paintings, they're off to their new homes and I couldn't be happier! My stock is now super low (which is AWESOME!) and means I will be getting back at it in the coming weeks. Thank you all for your ongoing support and encouragement.

Under a Blanket #3...has sold! Thank you all for your support, I am itching to get back in the studio, so stay tuned!

Hello everyone! Summer has been busy and I haven't had much studio time. But I have made time to have recent works professionally photographed, and I am sourcing out a place to have high quality prints made. So, if an original isn't in your budget right now, consider a print! Let me know if you're interested!

"Steadfast" has sold and will be heading to a loving new home after the show comes down! Thank you for all of your support and kind words everyone!

Now showing recent works at The Soup Wallah. Come and see my work up close, grab a latte, support local business...what could be better?
