Uptown Gallery Waterloo is a unique collective of local artists which began in early 2006 with an invitation to Waterloo artist Podi Lawrence.
UpTown Gallery and Workspace is an artists' collaborative project located in Uptown Waterloo. Participating artists are chosen for their professionalism and diversity of work. You will always find one of the artists in the gallery during opening hours. Artists are willing to talk to you about their art and techniques, and to discuss sales or commissions. Many of the artists will be demonstrating their skills and leading workshops on-site. All UpTown Gallery artists welcome commissions.
In the Gallery you will find original works both small and large, from high realism to abstract, and in price ranges to suit purchasers of art as gifts or as an investment. The range of styles and techniques is eclectic, with representation of skills in the following media:
oils, watercolours, acrylics, and pastels
collage
sculpture
mosaics created using traditional Italian methods
professional photography
stained and fused glass
In addition we offer:
Portraiture (people or pets) from pencil sketches to oils in realistic to impressionistic styles
Illustrations of special events/places - fundraisers, music events, ceremonies, weddings
Art Cards for all occasions
