Gift giving, no matter what the occasion can be a challenge as you struggle to find a perfect item that suits the personality of the person you're giving to and fits your budget. Art is a unique gift that is memorable and increases in value each year.
Here are a few gift suggestions that may just fit the bill for the people in your life.

Small original paintings
After completing a large painting, I often use the left over paint to create a small piece. This gives me the freedom to wander away from my usual niche of boats and water and explore different subjects and smaller sizes. These original paintings range in size from 5" x 7" upwards and prices are very affordable.
A gift of original art is a perfect way to start an art collection for someone else, celebrate a special birthday or life milestone such as graduation or retirement. Small paintings make lasting memories as Christmas gifts that give throughout the years.

Gift Certificates
If you're truly stumped a gift certificate is a great choice. The recipient can use a gift certificate towards the purchase of anything in the online store or the Baccalieu Gallery in Heart's Content during the May - October season. The best part is that you choose just how much you'll spend and there is no expiry date for the certificate.
Electronic gift cards are easy to purchase and send electronically and to redeem.

Art Workshops
Learning the techniques of drawing or painting is the most important part of moving towards a successful path in art, whether as a hobbyist or a professional.
I offer adult based workshops from classical drawing to palette knife painting that help individuals explore art and learn time honoured techniques in a supportive and fun environment.
NB: I use a palette knife to paint with exclusively and do not teach brush painting. However, techniques in painting can be used with any medium or tool.
Mentoring
Private classes from one to six hours are also available for individuals who prefer a one on one learning experience or who have specific needs in their art journey. Sessions that enhance a particular technique, positive and practical critiques of your work and how to move it to the next level, art business information, website and marketing and art school portfolio analysis are some of the services provided. Mentoring can be offered in-person or online through Zoom or FaceTime.
