Parksville BC Artist – Brandy Saturley
Welcome to the new studio of Canadian artist Brandy Saturley, now based in the beautiful seaside city of Parksville, British Columbia. After many years of painting from her studio in Victoria, Saturley has brought her creative practice to Vancouver Island’s tranquil east coast, where ocean air, arbutus trees, and the golden light of the Strait of Georgia inspire a new chapter in her work. While Saturley has never considered herself a local artist, with gallery representation across Canada and years spent traveling coast to coast to coast capturing the essence of Canadian life, her paintings draw deeply from these experiences, weaving them into powerful visual storytelling on canvas.
Painting the Spirit of the West Coast
Known for her bold and contemporary approach to Canadian iconography, Brandy Saturley paints the stories of Canada – its landscapes, symbols, and people – through a vibrant pop modernist lens. From coast to coast, her paintings explore identity and place, now infused with the calm rhythm and natural beauty of Parksville and the Oceanside region.
In her Parksville studio, Saturley continues to create vivid figurative landscapes and modern Canadian pop realism, using acrylic and oil on canvas. Each painting tells a visual story, rooted in travel, reflection, and connection to the land.
A Creative Home by the Sea
Relocating to Parksville has offered a renewed connection to nature and a welcoming creative community. The area’s stunning beaches, lush forests, and artistic energy have inspired a body of work reflecting life on the Left Coast, from still life paintings featuring west coast textures and colour, to sweeping landscapes capturing the serene power of Vancouver Island.
Parksville’s thriving arts scene, supported by the MacMillan Arts Centre (MAC) and the Oceanside Arts Council, offers local artists and visitors opportunities to connect through exhibitions, workshops, and community events. Saturley looks forward to contributing to this vibrant creative network and engaging with fellow artists and collectors throughout the region.
Collecting the Work
Original paintings by Brandy Saturley are available directly through her website and at select galleries across Canada. Collectors from the Oceanside region are welcome to inquire about private studio visits by appointment in Parksville.
