About OOAK

OOAK Artistry is a gallery dedicated to representing and promoting one-of-a-kind and limited-edition works by Canadian artists. Our mission is to provide a professional platform for artists whose practices prioritize authenticity, craftsmanship, and creative integrity within contemporary fine arts. We believe art is a powerful expression of individuality and personal narrative, and we support artists by presenting works that reflect singular vision, process, and passion. Through exhibitions, sales, and international opportunities, OOAK Artistry works to expand markets for Canadian artists and bring their work to new audiences.


Susan Michelle, founder, is a silversmith and photographer currently based out of both Vancouver Island and Saturna Island.  As a photographer, Suzi works primarily with 35mm film.  Suzi studied silversmithing under Judith Hirczy and has focused primarily on creating silver jewelry pieces, which have been showcased in stores since 2017.  Since conceiving OOAK, she aims to focus on one of a kind pieces that highlight her skill and creativity within her craft. 

"At the heart of our gallery is a commitment to providing a platform for artists who value creativity to it's most fundamental core.  Art is a mirror reflecting your individuality and a canvas that resonates with your personal story. We see one-of-a-kind works as a pure expression of the artist, creation unhindered by inhibition. Each piece is a testament to the artist's singular vision and passion for their craft."
