Osner Gallery in Montagu
Montagu Art Gallery at Bloupunt Winery
Original paintings and art photography by Martin Osner and Samantha Lee Osner hang right through the Bloupunt Winery on Long Street, in both restaurants (BluVines and Blou Café) and the wine tasting room.
The gallery
Art that lives where you eat and taste wine
Five years ago the BluVines District (now Bloupunt Winery) invited Osner Gallery to make the art for the space. Our work now hangs right through it, so you can look at original paintings over lunch or while you taste Bloupunt wine.
Montagu sits on Route 62, where the Langeberg mountains give way to the Karoo, South Africa’s semi arid desert. Long Street alone holds fourteen of the town’s twenty two national monuments, and the vineyards, farm roads and dry open light around it are the subjects Martin Osner keeps coming back to.

Art of Painting Breakaway, taught at Bloupunt Winery
- Dates16 to 20 August 2027
- LengthFive days
- PriceR22,500, about $1,200
- Taught byMartin Osner and Samantha Lee Osner
Bring your own photographs and leave with a finished painting. Over five days Martin Osner and Samantha Lee Osner show you how to turn pictures you have taken yourself into paintings, working beside you at the easel rather than lecturing from the front.
No painting experience is needed, and most people who come have never finished a canvas before. The course has moved here from Napier, to the place where our own work has hung for the past five years.
Included: five full days of tuition, studio and location sessions, the workshop space at Bloupunt Winery, a final showing on day five, and tea and coffee through each day. Accommodation, travel, meals and art materials are not included, though a pre packed set of materials can be ordered.
Plan your visit to Montagu
Getting to Bloupunt Winery
Montagu is about two hours from Cape Town. Take the N1 to Worcester, the R60 through Robertson, then Route 62 through Ashton and in through the Cogmans Kloof Pass, which is worth the drive on its own.
At Bloupunt Winery you can taste Bloupunt wine, eat at the restaurants and see the art in one visit, and the Montagu hot springs are on the doorstep.
