What Our Visitors Say
It was a pleasure to work with Julia. I commissioned her to create a large oil painting of my family’s sailboat racing in Nantucket Sound. She took the time to learn about the boat, the crew, and even the specific regatta we were in. The finished painting is so lifelike that friends who have sailed with us can immediately recognize the exact moment she captured. This is now the centerpiece of our home, and something we will cherish for generations.

Beautiful Cape Cod and nautical paintings. The detail is extraordinary — you can see every rope, wave, and shadow. I purchased a limited edition print of a regatta scene, and it brings me back to summer every time I look at it. The gallery itself is charming and Julia is so welcoming when you visit.

A light-filled sanctuary with gorgeous paintings of sailboats, coastal scenes, and serene harbors. I stopped in on a whim while exploring the Cape and ended up spending over an hour admiring the detail in each piece. You feel the breeze, the salt air, and the motion of the water in her work. Even if you’re not ready to buy, it’s worth visiting for the inspiration alone.

While on the Cape go to the O’Malley-Keyes Fine Art Gallery in Teaticket and view some of the finest photorealistic works of art available created by artist Julia O’Malley-Keyes.

O'Malley Keyes creates outstanding paintings, many of Falmouth or local Cape Cod. The studio is small and pretty and filled with art. The artist was not there when I visited. The studio has limited hours so check before you go. The paintings are VERY expensive, but you can purchase prints (also quite expensive). I was there just to browse but would recommend this artist to collectors who want some seriously fine art depicting the area.
When I happened on to Julia’s gallery 7 years ago, I was seeking out artists to support Figawi Charities. We have been unbelievably fortunate over the years to have the finest of Cape Cod’s artists donate their works to be auctioned off at our annual Figawi Charity Ball — an event that has raised and donated over $3 million over the last 26 years. Little did I know that I had just met the artist who would have the largest impact in our long history. Her first donated painting had bids pouring in before the event even started. It sold at our silent auction for $25,000! But she wasn’t done! Julia has donated so many large, unbelievable paintings (not to mention numerous Framed Fine Art Prints) that she is easily the single largest donor to our annual auction. She is not only one of The Cape’s most important artists, she is also unbelievably generous.

When you make the major commitment to buy fine art it is important to select the pieces that will stand the test of time. Will you love them just as much in ten years as today? Will they still have the ability to excite you and draw you into their story? With Julia O’Malley-Keyes work, the answer is yes. Whether you select one of her peaceful shore scenes or an adrenaline rushing sailing race, the art will continually affirm your wise selection.

Julia is one of the most talented artists I have ever met. I have many of her awesome paintings in my home in Windermere, Florida and my office in Orlando, FL. Her work always evokes the most positive emotions from all who see her fabulous work. Julia is an artistic superstar!

My wife and I fell in love with Julia’s work after first seeing a painting that she had donated to a charity affair. We were overwhelmed with her detail and workmanship. We have since purchased 6 paintings which we have throughout our house on the Cape. Four are of racing ships at sea and 2 are idyllic scenes. My wife and I both feel the paintings are a spectacular addition to our home.

Julia’s art is the kind that just keeps on giving. I find myself studying it regularly, discovering something new, walking away amazed at the talent of this great artist. Her original works and choice of subject composition are simply outstanding. The Giclee prints allow all of us to own a piece of the work created by this wonderful artist. Indeed, Julia’s paintings are not only very collectible due to her reputation and talent as a great artist, but are also a thing of beauty. Fine art that brings a smile every time I look at them.

I have two of Julia’s prints in my home and gave one as a gift. They represent the best of what is Cape Cod. The one I gave as a gift is positioned directly over their sofa in their living room and serves as their daily reminder of the Cape Cod they love so much.

Julia’s talent for creating magnificent art with the most minute detail is beyond belief. I don’t know of another artist who has the ability to produce such breathtaking images in such a wide spectrum of subjects. Her Seascapes, Landscapes, Sailing vessels, and Portraits are all equally awe inspiring. In short, Julia’s work is spectacular.

My first Julia painting took my breath away. It reached within and touched my soul. I was forever hooked, not only on the artist but on the place where my husband and I will retire. To awe with beauty and to inspire with reality is to capture one’s heart. Julia will live on in our home for the rest of our lives. Each time I pass one of her paintings it takes me to another world, a world I can dissolve into and forever become a part of. Thanks Julia for your talent and eye for beauty.

I have purchased a number of Julia’s paintings, but the large sailboat making its way through the winds off Nantucket has been moved from my office to my new house, I needed to see it more. It now resides over the fireplace and is the center of attention and happiness. It is exquisite. Ms. O’Malley-Keyes has a special talent and I feel blessed that I know her and have some of her wonderful works. I will be after more as the space dictates, but the painting described above will never go back to my office, it will remain in my home wherever that home may be.

Guests and visitors are almost immediately drawn to the art of Julia O’Malley Keyes, and the art always evokes a positive response. I recently had an offer on my house and it was partly contingent on the inclusion of the art work. Needless to say, I wouldn’t even part with one of the many beautiful pieces in my collection. As I said to Julia when the vast selection of her talent was available for me to view and select from… “How could I choose?” Julia’s art continues to make my life richer, and I am grateful!

Julia has never hesitated to donate her beautiful paintings to support finding a cure for type 1 diabetes. Her works always draw the top bid at our annual auction. Thank you, Julia. We are so fortunate to look at one of Julia’s original paintings every day. She also has a complete line of limited edition prints which make collecting her beautiful work accessible to most. We have some of these prints in our Florida home. We love the comments from our guests who are immediately attracted to our “wall of Julia”.

I’ve seen fine art across Europe and the U.S., and Elizabeth’s gallery in Falmouth belongs in that conversation. Her control of color and light is extraordinary. I purchased a midsized coastal piece, and it now hangs in our Napa home. It glows.
Catherine Langford
Atherton, CA
We were visiting Cape Cod with friends when we discovered this gallery, and I was genuinely taken aback by the quality of the work. Elizabeth O’Malley-Keyes is not just another coastal painter—her technique rivals that of major gallery artists in Manhattan. She captures water like Sargent captured light.
Harrison Bellamy
Scarsdale, NY
Truly world-class. The portraits in particular took my breath away—rich, emotional, and technically flawless. This isn’t a beachside tourist shop; this is fine art with museum-level detail. I was thrilled to acquire a piece.
One of the best private galleries I’ve seen on the East Coast. Clean, quiet space. Sharp work. Elizabeth’s harbor scenes are timeless. I left with two paintings, and I’ll be back for more.
Preston Wolfe
Greenwich, CT
I didn’t expect to find a gallery of this caliber tucked away in Falmouth. O’Malley-Keyes’ work could easily hang in New York or London. Her seascapes are serene but layered with feeling—nothing flat or commercial. A real talent.
Vanessa Jameson
Beverly Hills, CA
The moment I walked in, I knew I was in the hands of a master. O’Malley-Keyes balances emotion with impeccable technique. It’s rare to find such precision without losing soul. Exceptional.
Alexander DuPont

We stopped in on a whim while sailing through the Cape, and I was floored. I ended up purchasing a dramatic sunset piece that now hangs in our guest house. It has a magnetic presence—people comment on it constantly.
Natalie Forester
Short Hills, NJ
This is what fine art should be—authentic, emotional, and technically excellent. I’ve seen many coastal galleries, but O’Malley-Keyes’ work stands far above the crowd. Her sense of movement in the water is spectacular.
Chase Montgomery
The Hamptons, NY
In a word sublime. Every brushstroke feels intentional; every canvas tells a story. We came for a quick look and stayed nearly an hour. I couldn’t leave without making a purchase.
Evelyn Carr
Bloomfield Hills, MI
I’ve had art consultants recommend pieces from major galleries that didn’t move me half as much as what I saw here. Elizabeth’s work is subtle, evocative, and full of clarity. An unassuming space with top-tier talent.
Barrett Klein
Medina, WA
I visit a lot of galleries, and most blend together. This one didn’t. O’Malley-Keyes creates a quiet elegance that lingers with you. Her portraits, in particular, are astonishingly lifelike. I only wish I’d discovered her work sooner.
Paige Whitmore
Cherry Hills Village, CO
Outstanding. The realism in her work, especially in the ocean pieces, is museum level. The gallery was calm and well lit—perfect for taking in the depth of her technique.
Trevor Hanley

O’Malley-Keyes Fine Art was an unexpected discovery, but an unforgettable one. It’s a small space, but the quality of work is immense. We bought a piece for our Aspen lodge and will definitely return.
Sloane Delacroix

Elizabeth’s work is everything I want from contemporary realism—technically disciplined yet emotionally alive. We commissioned a portrait on the spot. Incredible eye.
Camden O’Rourke

I found this gallery by accident and left with a painting I’ll treasure for life. The scene—a Cape shoreline at dusk—is haunting in the best way. Elizabeth is clearly operating at the top of her field.
Marissa Vaughn

This isn’t art for Instagram, it’s art for your soul. Quiet. Confident. Excellent. Elizabeth’s gallery is a gift to Cape Cod and a must see for serious collectors.
Tripp Marlowe

My interior designer recommended visiting this gallery, and I’m so glad I listened. We acquired a large seascape for our Miami home, and it transformed the space. Elegant, timeless, deeply beautiful.
Anastasia Pierce

The gallery space is intimate but filled with energy. I could tell everything was selected and placed with intention. If you want more than a souvenir—if you want a piece of Cape Cod’s soul—this is the place.

Julia’s gallery was recommended by our concierge. Her work is luminous, full of grace and silence. We purchased a sunrise piece that now lights up our villa in Italy. Grazie, Julia!

We were in Falmouth for a wedding and walked into this gallery on a free afternoon. What we found felt more Fifth Avenue than seaside town. Elizabeth’s command of light and texture is breathtaking.
Beckett Lyons

Every now and then, you come across an artist whose work sticks with you long after you leave. Elizabeth is one of those. Her work doesn’t shout—it speaks. With clarity, grace, and precision.
Harper Bancroft
Great Falls, VA
Elegant gallery, astonishing art. I purchased a piece for our Tahoe house and have received nothing but compliments. It captures the essence of the sea—tranquil, but never still. Elizabeth’s talent is undeniable.
Fiona Masters

If you’re on the Cape and love fine art, make this gallery your first stop. Julia is not only a phenomenal artist but a deeply engaging human being. Her gallery feels more like a private museum—refined and intimate. I left with a harbor scene that’s now the heart of our London flat.

My partner and I visit galleries throughout the summer, but few have had the charm or class of O’Malley-Keyes Fine Art. Julia’s presence is magnetic, her work captivating. A must see.

Julia O’Malley-Keyes has created something truly special at her gallery. Her art captures Cape Cod in a way that’s elegant without being pretentious, heartfelt without being sentimental. I’ve returned several times over the years, and her work only grows more powerful.

I had the pleasure of visiting O’Malley-Keyes Fine Art during a weekend getaway to Falmouth, and I was completely captivated. The moment I walked in, I was struck by the clarity and warmth of the coastal scenes—Julia’s paintings are luminous and full of life.

O’Malley-Keyes Fine Art is a must visit for anyone who loves maritime or coastal artwork. The paintings have a depth that draws you in—like you’re standing on the shore yourself. Julia pours her heart into every piece.

I visited the gallery on a friend’s recommendation, and I’m so glad I did. The quality of work is astounding—rich, elegant paintings that feel both timeless and deeply personal.
Linda Carver

My wife and I stumbled upon this gallery while walking near Maravista Avenue, and it turned out to be the highlight of our trip. The paintings are exquisite, especially the seascapes. There’s a quiet energy in her brushwork that you just can’t find in photographs or prints.
Robert Fields
Burlington, VT
As someone who grew up visiting Cape Cod, I’ve always looked for art that reflects the way it feels to be here—not just how it looks. O’Malley-Keyes nails it. The light, the motion, the emotion—it’s all there.
Emily Rodriguez
Hartford, CT
My husband surprised me with a visit to this gallery during our anniversary trip, and it ended up being one of the best parts of our weekend. The moment we walked in, I was drawn to a portrait that nearly brought me to tears. There’s such sensitivity in the way Julia paints people. You can tell this is more than a business—it’s a passion project. Every canvas, every corner of the room reflects love and care. We bought a small coastal piece, and it now hangs in our home, reminding us daily of our special trip.
Michelle Brown
Albany, NY
I’m an amateur painter myself, and I can honestly say Julia O’Malley-Keyes’ work is technically brilliant. Her mastery of light, composition, and mood is something you rarely see outside major cities. This gallery deserves far more recognition than it gets. She’s also a joy to speak with—kind, humble, and deeply insightful about the artistic process. Whether you’re a collector, an artist, or just someone who appreciates beauty, this gallery is worth your time.
Daniel Price
Montpelier, VT
This place is a treasure. I was staying with family in Falmouth and decided to explore the local art scene—so glad I walked into O’Malley-Keyes Fine Art. The space is pristine and calming, and the artwork is nothing short of stunning. It’s rare to find work that’s so technically excellent and emotionally resonant. I left with a print, and now I’m saving for an original. It’s more than art—it’s memory on canvas.
Hannah Lee
Nashua, NH
We visited this gallery as part of our Cape Cod art tour and were absolutely blown away. Julia’s work has a warmth and honesty that’s rare these days. Her landscapes, in particular, manage to capture motion, memory, and mood all at once. The gallery is small but thoughtfully arranged. It’s not trying to overwhelm—it’s inviting you to pause and experience. I’ll definitely return on our next visit.
Mark Thompson
New Haven, CT
I was immediately struck by the intimacy of this gallery. It’s clear that every detail—from the framing to the lighting—has been curated to honor the artwork. And it deserves it—these paintings are breathtaking. O’Malley-Keyes captures Cape Cod’s essence in a way I haven’t seen elsewhere. It’s not postcard perfect; it’s real, vivid, and heartfelt. I couldn’t stop thinking about one of the harbor pieces and had to go back the next day to buy it.
Angela Morton
Portsmouth, NH
I came in expecting pretty beach scenes. I left stunned by the artistry. Julia’s work goes far beyond coastal charm—there’s a depth of emotion and skill that reminds me of the Old Masters. The portraits especially caught my attention. They’re not just lifelike—they’re alive. I’ve visited dozens of galleries up and down the Cape, and this one stands out by miles.
Jonathan Mills
Northampton, MA
I had seen Julia’s work online but visiting the gallery in person was a whole different experience. The colors are more vivid, the texture richer, and the emotional impact greater. Every painting feels like a moment captured forever. I was also impressed by the professionalism and warmth of the space. It’s polished but welcoming—not the kind of place where you feel intimidated. I’ll be recommending this gallery to everyone I know visiting the Cape.
Teresa Lang
Westerly, RI
O’Malley-Keyes Fine Art is easily one of the most compelling art spaces I’ve been in while in New England. The depth in her work pulls you in, and before you know it, you’ve been standing in front of one painting for 15 minutes, just feeling it. I brought my teenage daughter, who usually isn’t moved by traditional art, and even she was transfixed. That says a lot about the universal emotion in Julia’s work.
Brian Callahan
Worcester, MA
As a collector, I’m always on the lookout for original work that speaks to both the heart and the eye. Julia O’Malley-Keyes checks every box. Her paintings are emotional, sophisticated, and technically masterful. The gallery is peaceful and beautifully presented. It feels like you’re stepping into a story—or a memory. I purchased a piece and couldn’t be happier with it.
Rebecca Kim
Cambridge, MA
If you’re in Falmouth and skip this gallery, you’re missing out. O’Malley-Keyes’ paintings are mesmerizing—whether it’s a still harbor or a windswept dune, you feel like you’re there. I was particularly moved by a large seascape that seemed to breathe with the tide. Julia was kind enough to share the backstory of the painting, which made it all the more meaningful.
David Collins
Brockton, MA
A world-class experience in a quiet coastal town. Julia greeted us herself and gave us a deeply personal tour of her work. We collect across Europe, and this is gallery-quality art… serious, evocative, masterfully executed.

I wasn’t planning to buy art on vacation, but one of Julia’s paintings stopped me in my tracks. It was a moody, glowing sunset over the water—and it felt like home. I bought it on the spot. The gallery is a peaceful refuge. You can feel the love and effort that went into every piece. This isn’t just a stop on a tourist trail—it’s an experience.
Laura West

Julia O’Malley-Keyes is brilliant. I was stunned by her use of light and emotion in the ocean scenes. Her gallery is modest in size but grand in presence. A gem.
Parisiano
Paris, France — 2024
O’Malley-Keyes Fine Art is a rare find. The gallery itself is simple and elegant, letting the work take center stage. And that work? Exceptional. Each painting carries a story and a sense of place that’s hard to shake. I’ve been to dozens of coastal galleries, but Julia’s pieces are the only ones that feel truly personal. There’s soul in them. This is an artist at the top of her craft.
Steven Archer
Keene, NH
Visiting this gallery was like discovering a secret. Tucked into a quiet part of Falmouth, it feels private and special. Julia’s paintings are luminous—they glow with emotion and light. She greeted us with warmth and answered questions with joy and detail. It was an experience, not just a visit. I left both inspired and refreshed.
