We almost always make a detour to Illwaco when in the area to visit, catch up on his latest waitlist and hopefully get to see his latest piece in process! We have most of our Wallspace covered in Don and other Southwest Washington Coadt local artists! It’s our happy place and Don as a person and in his work creates, celebrates and shows us all what a truly beautiful place it is, both is humorous images of seagulls and Crab roasting marshmallows on a beach fire to exquisitely crafted images of the wildlife, the scenic area, detailed maps and relics and life in a beach community! And if it’s a Saturday in the summer the boardwalk farmers market may be going on or on the first a Thursday I think (ask Don) there is an art walk

I have admired Dons art for some time now and when I went into his gallery I was not disappointed . The artist himself painting as you shop. I was in awe. I stopped to ask him to sign a special piece I had picked out and we chatted about an hour it seemed . We are truly blessed to have a local artist like Don Nisbett and his gallery so close .

Don is an amazing artist and just a good human. His gallery on the harbor is cozy and a lovely place to spend some time looking at his creations. His art is amazing and there are many formats (coaster, tile, poster, paintings, etc) you can buy. Beautiful use of colors and concepts all around.

Enchanting place with so many options for shopping and gifts. Amazing artwork, I did not expect to find the artist in the shop when I entered. Super nice, very accommodating, a true member of the community. I stop by every time I’m at the docks.

My family always stops here to see what new art Don has created. We have two of his paintings already and we’re excited to add one more.

A trip to the Long Beach Peninsula would be incomplete without a visit to Don Nisbett's exceptional art gallery in Ilwaco, Washington. As soon as I step foot inside, I find myself immersed in a world of creativity and imagination, where every corner reveals another stunning piece of artwork or innovative installation that defies explanation. A definite must see when visiting Ilwaco!

This has turned in to our family tradition, we go on the 4th and visit Don before we settle in for fire works! Love his shop and greetings everytime we come in!

This is a beautiful shop on the Ilwaco, Washington docks. Dons’ art is inspired by local PNW themes, and never disappoints. My favorite? The original art wine glasses!

Don is "My Guy" for my personal and business artwork needs! I have purchased his artwork for my home over the years and recently called on him to design my business logo. Don did not disappoint! We love the logo and look forward to picking up our merchandise order next week! Such a great guy with attention to detail and a great artistic vision! Don is now a part of the Sasquatch Outdoors family and thank you Don, for welcoming Sasquatch Outdoors to the Don Nisbett Art Gallery family!

Don was so much help. I am a beginner artist and I was admiring the trees in one of his paintings and I asked how he did that. He then gave me a whole walk through of how to paint trees while he painted on a canvas so I can learn visually. After he was done he signed the canvas and gave it to me for free. He also gave me words of encouragement for my artistic path. A really amazing artist and a really amazing guy. Through my art journey I will always remember him and his amazing advice. Thank you so much for the free art lesson.

Don is such a kind and genuine human. As soon as we walked in he greeted us with chocolate! He then called us over to show us some glass he was in the process of painting. It was fun to see him in action as we admired a studio full of breathtaking art. We left with several items and plans to come back again soon!!

Don is a class act. He's kind and inviting to our kids. He's been here for years and is one of Washington's most famous living artists. We make it a point to stop in here and pick something up every visit. He's tied into his community, as are most business owners in a small town. He makes a great effort to visit with every patron. He loves interpretation on northwest coastal themes, be they mythical (think mermaids and sasquatch) or scenic (think fishing boats and sea life), but he ventures well beyond any box you want to put him in. You can't drive around the area without seeing his art on local business signs, advertisements, and various places. He's an exemplary representative of his town, county, and the state of Washington. We really enjoy his attitude and the feeling he gives us as patrons, like we matter to him. Thank you Don! We really enjoy the customization you always do for us and our prints.

Don is a Peninsula legend! He's a huge community supporter, using his artistic talents to help fundraise for local causes and he does it all with an award winning smile!! I'm thankful for Don and his wife Jenna Austin Nisbett, for all they do!!

Don is a gifted, talented and well respected artist in the region. His niche ocean related artwork can also be seen in and around various buildings around the region.His popular "12" Seahawks themed work is definitely a favorite, and his popular style of mixing comedic themes into his easily recognizable style generates plenty of smiles and admiration for young and old alike.Don is also usually found working in the shop and is always interesting to talk to. He has even been known to do custom work on request.He has plenty of great collectibles too as well as nice pieces painted on driftwood and the like to add a nice ambience to any room.

Had a nice visit with Don this afternoon. Cool local artist. He has some neat original work for sale plus a bunch of prints from his original work. Added bonus of a tour guide for the area. Worth the stop if you are in the area.
