Find the maker at these markets
Hilary Morris moved from the UK to Vancouver in 1987 and picked up a paintbrush to get to know the city. She has spent about three decades recording its neighbourhoods and views in watercolour and India ink. Her paintings range from historic buildings and local haunts to wide panoramas of the city.
Her studio in Railspur Alley sells originals and prints, along with cards and kitchen textiles that carry her designs. She sells under the name Beaver Pond Creative at markets, and Circle Craft lists her among its 2026 artists. US tariffs have stopped her shipping to the United States for now, so buy in person if you live there.
Worth knowing
- Buy her prints in person if you live in the United States, because she has paused US shipping over tariffs.
- Pick up a box of her Christmas cards, which come in assortments of 12 and 20.
