It all started at a bus stop in 2006 when Kevan Seng (24) met Raymond Chow (65) at a bus stop in Richmond, BC. Kevan had asked Raymond for change for a $10 dollar bill. After that, the two exchanged business cards and that's when Kevan realized Raymond was a famous artist.
A couple days later, Raymond invited Kevan to his gallery, the first one Kevan would ever visit.
As Kevan entered the space, there was a staircase with art on both sides of the walls. The art took Kevan back to the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's where drawings of buildings and cityscapes from those eras were present. Kevan was in such amazement that it took him 10 minutes to walk up a flight of 20 stairs. As he reached the top, he saw a room full of paintings. He was in awe.
That's when Capulet Art Gallery & Framing Shop was born.
In the summer of 2003, a group of seven artists came together to open a collective gallery to have a permanent home to show and sell our work and to offer consignment space to other artists. We all pitched in to transform what was once a cafe into a gallery. The hard work paid off and in the early fall 'Arts Off Main' opened to the public. Shortly thereafter we were joined by a talented framer.
Graham Watts is a landscape artist specializing in capturing the wildlife and local scenery of Vancouver, Whistler, and the Sea-to-Sky corridor. His original hand-painted oil on canvas pieces blend realism with his unique interpretation, creating vibrant and evocative scenes. Graham has called the Sea-to-Sky region home for over 25 years. He draws inspiration from its diverse people, environments, colours, and sounds, reflecting his deep connection to the West Coast in his art. Graham’s work has gained widespread appeal, with pieces sold across British Columbia, Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom.
