On Wednesday the 17^th of July, Art Vancouver and Art Downtown brought together eight of the city’s most exciting up and coming artists for its annual Art Masters competition, an event proudly sponsored by Kare Vancouver.

Art Masters is an enthralling painting competition where eight painters put their skills, talents and artistry to the test, being given just one hour to design and paint a work which embodies an unknown theme with unknown materials and Canvas.

The artists compete for public votes, with the most votes taking home the grand prize and enviable title of Art Master.

This year’s competition was set in the beautiful Lot 19 park in Downtown Vancouver on one of the cities rare sunny days. The artists and public gathered where they were told the year’s theme, “the joy of living” and had the canvas revealed to them.

The canvas was this subtle yet compelling Cabeza Vase, both designed and supplied by Kare Vancouver. With its minimalist design, distinctive lines and muted modern coloring, the Cabeza proved the perfect canvas for this colorful theme.

Despite the heat, the artists brought their best, imbuing the contemporary Kare Design with the joy of living, creating colorful and introspective works that truly brought the vases to life.

After an hour of furious work, it was tools down for the artists and the audience contemplated the diverse and colorful designs. Votes were cast and after much deliberation and anticipation, Vancouver-based artist Leila Razi was declared the winner and took home a 200-dollar Kare gift card.

Inspiration Furniture and Kare Vancouver would like to congratulate all the contestants on their excellent work, with special congratulations to the winner Leila Razi, we can’t wait to see you in store with your prize.  

Additionally, we would like to thank Art Vancouver and Art Downtown for organizing and allowing us to be part of this excellent event.

Art Masters will return in 2025, with tickets on sale now and you can find the Cabeza vase online or at either our Vancouver or Coquitlam locations.

With our Italian Days event in full swing for the month of April, we’re shining a light on our two newest Italian Vendors: Qeeboo and Lineasette.

Launched in 2016 by prominent Italian industrial designer, interior designer and architect Stefano Giovanni Qeeboo’s pop-infused designs invites you to connect with your inner creativity and allow you to bring thought, vision and emotion to everyday spaces.

Formed in 1977 and with its workshop located in Nove, known worldwide as “The Town of Ceramics”, Linneasette combines a proud history of ceramics with an exclusive formula for porcelain stoneware to create designs which are waterproof, highly resistant and timeless.

And in addition to their technical quality, Linneasette boasts that it’s “sculptures are works of art exemplifying the precious value of Italian craftsmanship,” with a wide product line including vases, centerpieces, sculptures and lamps, as well as decorative panels.

A number of Linneasette’s designs can also be found at our Vancouver showroom, including their Morandi Bottles and Hello Nature Corals amongst several other decorative pieces.

Whether you are looking to tap into your creativity or bring a sense of calm and harmony to your space, Qeeboo and Lineasette’s products will have what you are looking for, so come in store to our Vancouver showroom 1275 West 6th Ave. Vancouver and check out these exciting new additions.
