Janvier Gallery
Janvier Gallery is home to the works of Alex Janvier, a professional artist renowned for his distinct curved lines and use of bright colours combinations.
At his gallery in Cold Lake, you will find an amazing assortment of original works of art, art products, and Alex Janvier prints.
Beautiful gallery and artwork
My husband and I love Alex Janvier’s work and went to the gallery to look at the artwork and purchase a painting. The gallery is solely to display his work, and has many pieces to choose from. It is a beautiful bright space, and although small, is worth seeing, since he is such a Canadian treasure. I bought a painting that I absolutely LOVE, and enjoyed viewing the work on display. Jill who works there was a pleasure to deal with, and the location near Cold Lake meant we had a small vacation structured around the gallery visit, and we plan on going back in the summer to enjoy the lake. If you love art and Alex Janvier, treat yourself to a mini vacation to Cold Lake and check out his gallery!
