We are a brother-sister art duo based out of Waterloo, Ontario who produce contemporary artwork. We are currently offering free shipping to your door (contactless delivery through Canpar) or local curbside pickup on all Munzy canvas prints and oil paintings. The Stick Man was Jonathan Munz's first piece of art. Created using a medium of green Crayola crayon on drywall, this masterpiece still exists on the walls of the artist's childhood home in Heidelberg, Ontario.
Services
Paint By Munzy's original oil paintings are meticulously hand painted using oil on canvas. Due to the popularity of Jonathan's original pieces, our collection of original paintings is limited and new releases can be seen first in our monthly newsletter. We are currently accepting custom painting requests for 2021 so please contact us if you have an idea for an original painting you would like to be considered.
Discover the vibrant beauty of Canadian artist Jonathan Munz's one of a kind paintings. Rich in colour and texture each piece is meticulously hand-painted using oil paint on stretched canvas. What's the difference between an original oil painting and a canvas print? There is only ever one original painting and when it's sold it's sold.
Paint By Munzy's original oil paintings are meticulously hand painted using oil on stretched canvas by Ontario artist Jonathan Munz. These pieces are one-of-a-kind and custom painting requests are welcomed for consideration. To create our canvas prints, Jonathan (the artist) first photographs his original oil paintings using a professional camera.
If you have a custom painting idea you would like Jonathan to consider, get started today contacting us by email at paintbymunzy@gmail.com or by phone 226 606 2233. We only like to share completed pieces as parts of each painting may change throughout the painting process. Jonathan almost always works from a reference photo.

Munzy is our favourite local artist. Over the past couple holidays, I have bought my wife three original paintings, and about a dozen virtual prints for our new Art Frame TV. The art is incredibly distinct, unique, and beautiful. And it is always fun to interact with Laura and her brother. I hope to continue to, for many years!

Every experience with Paint by Munzy is inspiring and is a sense of being apart of a bigger community with those of the great diversively inclusive Canadian spirit. It is always bright and colour-full, and warm and personal!
Whether giving the original art or merchandise as a gift to myself or others, or dropping in the gallery, or seeing a calendar in another business, or attending the November party, my heart, soul & mind seem lifted & engaged!!

I first discovered Munzy's art a few years ago when I found one of his calendars on a neighbour's lawn on Churchill St. I loved all the artwork (and was very confused as to why anyone would have discarded it) and treasured the calendar despite it having been rained on and being a bit tattered. I didn't realize they were complimentary until a friend mentioned that he had visited the gallery and got a few of them himself! It was always in the back of my mind to visit but it wasn't until this past Christmas that I wandered in. Laura is so friendly and supportive of her brother and his art, it's very

Finally got into the gallery for my first visit! Hours are now regular following limited road construction hours. Bought a collection of beautiful art cards for the holidays and birthdays. Laura was super welcoming and a delight to chat with. Looking forward to my next visit.
Jon is my favourite local artist. Gorgeous landscapes. I will be saving for a full-size original! The perfect place to check out if you’re looking to support Canadian art and buy local. Range of affordability as well

Jonathan Munz's work portrays landscapes that are reminiscent of the Group of Seven, but with his own unique Contemporary or Impressionist lens applied. So many stunning pieces; the "Killarney Rock Trees" piece is my personal favourite. Definitely to worth popping by the Uptown Waterloo Gallery for a print, a greeting card, or to view the exceptional display of original works. The brother-sister run gallery "Paint by Munzy" is one of the many treasures of the community.

I have admired Jon's work for many years now. My husband and I have been fortunate enough to acquire a few of his pieces for ourselves and friends. Jon offers a truly humble "Canadian" perspective to his landscapes and other works. Jon's work carries me to my most treasured place, reflecting upon the beauty of the Canadian landscape and nature at large. His art eases both my heart and mind. If you haven't seen this young man's talented works of art, check out the website or drop by the gallery curated by Jon's wonderful sister Laura and enjoy!

My experience with Laura Munz at the gallery has always been exceptional. She is professional and also very warm and welcoming. Laura is passionate about Jon's work and it is easy to see how proud she is of him. Jon's work is always admired in my home by friends and family and I recommend that they check out the gallery and online store for a variety of prints - I love his European series and his birch trees. Knowing Jon personally, I know how much love goes into his work. This is a great little shop with beautiful art in the accessible uptown Waterloo.

Absolutely love Johnathan's artwork. His talent shines through in every work he does regardless of the style of the piece. He can paint the most beautiful forest scene, capturing the essence of the moment, so you feel you are there. Or there are the stylized paintings, including the New York City Collection that so capture the mood of the moment. Some are breathtakingly beautiful and some are painfully moody. I have to visit the gallery a few more times before I can decide what piece I want to buy. Laura is an awesome gallery host, showcasing her brother's work fabulously. Always nice to have a
