The Art Studio at Willard Beach

Hand Painted
Functional Art

Now offering hand painted items!

Welcome to the Studio at Willard Beach. Please take the time to view our extensive collection of handpainted items including dinnerware, glassware, cups, vases, trivets and novelty gifts. We also offer original artwork and prints which can be viewed in our galleries. We are available by commission for portraits of both people and pets.

All of our art can be purchased here at our website through PayPal. Please bear in mind as you view our handpainted items that each is painted individually so that every piece in a set, even of the same design, has its own unique characteristics.

Although we specialize in pieces that have a Maine orientation, we offer a wide variety of designs from which you can choose. In fact, you can even request your own design.

All of our items are moderately priced and we will happily ship your order anywhere in the US and Canada.

As you browse through our galleries, please note that all of our handpainted items are oven-fired, so that they are suitable for everyday use.
