Convenient Browsing Service

In addition to its knowledge of the Irish art market, the Canvas art gallery combines both digital and real-world advisory services for the benefit of both its artists and art-buyers. For example, if you are interested in buying an original artwork or commissioning a series, Canvas will arrange to visit your premises to offer a free consultation. You can browse the work of one or all artists or be presented with a carefully selected showcase of artworks tailored to your artistic or investment preferences. In effect, Canvas brings the art to you(!) - an unusual and useful service for all art collectors.

Corporate Art

Original Irish paintings make exciting corporate gifts. As well as being unusual and memorable, they help to support Irish visual arts for the benefit of everyone.
