Blu Smith: New Work in the Studio!

20 May, 2020 1 min read

Canadian Westcoast based artist Blu Smith has unveiled a new series of work on a new large canvas scale! The West End Gallery has been allowed to display extra-large canvases, exclusively on our website that our visitors may not have had an opportunity to see at our galleries. These newly completed canvases extend up to the 9 feet wide and over 5 feet high!

Blu Smith's artwork has always been an experience to behold. Broad, passionate brush strokes, intense reds and blues complimented by hues of soft greens and purple take you on an introspective journey into a landscape or abstract expression of Blu's creation.

Our art gallery currently has three new works, located in Blu Smith's studio. These paintings are available for immediate purchase and are included under our Free Shipping Within Canada Promotion, and restrictions would apply. We also offer complimentary mockup services for homes and offices. If you would like to learn more about that process, see our "Mockup Service" page.

Behind the Blooms: The Making of Breath of Life

05 March, 2024 3 min read

Breath of Life began with a drawing, a simple yet powerful blueprint for what would become a life-sized celebration of nature. In the concept sketches, we see the genesis of her vision—clusters of peonies rendered in loose, confident strokes. These initial marks are the seeds from which the full bloom of the diptych would grow.
