JB Crafts
At JB Crafts woodworking has been a passion of mine from a very young age, all my projects are made by hand and everything I build is custom made.
From wood lathe, table saw, bandsaw and hand carving, creating beautiful bowls to wooden vessels and specialty wooden projects
I look forward to helping you with your next custom creation.

Select original acrylic paintings can be viewed at the Texada Island Inn in Van Anda, B.C., where a rotating collection of work is displayed throughout the year. Inspired by the natural beauty, coastal atmosphere, and quiet character of Texada Island, each piece reflects moments and landscapes from the surrounding community and coastline.
Lori Anne John Vick, Visual Artist
Inspiration: I look, I think, I react, I paint, I adjust. I work on loosening up towards abstraction, but I am a realist.
I play with colour and use lots of it. Having a colour deficiency towards red and green results in some different colour mixtures. People have commented on it!
And I love going to art galleries and shows to see through other artists’ eyes. I really appreciate new ways of experiencing the world.
