Gallery

Earth Attitudes is located in Parksville on beautiful Vancouver Island on the west coast of Canada. We make and sell architectural ceramics, create mosaics and commercial signs, and sell a unique variety of art from the functional to the whimsical.

Our clay art ranges from three-dimensional sculptures to complete hand-sculpted architectural features. Because we start with the "raw" clay, we can create almost anything your mind can imagine. Individual sprigs of your favourite creatures or objects, real or fantasy, proper or erotic, can be created in our studio. Items can be painted, glazed or carved, depending upon the final look desired. Complete scenes can be created for kitchen backsplashes, door or window surrounds, bathroom or laundry features, custom inlaid floors, or wall art for any space inside or outside your home or business. We are only limited by your imagination!

Our woodcarvings are hand-carved from a variety of woods by local carvers. They range from detailed exact replicas to the interpretive. Typical subjects are birds, wildlife, fish and the human form.

Our skilled artists can provide a wide range of art, including slumped and fused glass, wood and stone tables, pottery, through original oil and acrylic art. From the practical to the whimsical, we can help turn your dreams into a reality!

Please explore our website to view a sampling of our projects that we have installed in Canada and internationally, and some of the items that we currently have for sale in our gallery.
