Boomer  - Oil on canvas.  Original sold, price is for a framed canvas print.  There are dogs who simply share our homes, and then there are dogs who share our lives. Boomer was the latter — a Springer Spaniel with a gaze that could quiet a room and a spirit that moved with equal parts devotion and mischief. In this portrait, his expressive brown eyes become the focal point, drawing the viewer into a moment of connection that feels both intimate and enduring. Painted in 2015, the piece blends realism with a softly impressionistic landscape, allowing Boomer’s presence to rise from a world of color and memory. The textured brushwork in his black‑and‑white coat reflects the tactile truth of a beloved companion, while the rolling hills and luminous sky behind him echo the joy and freedom he carried wherever he went. It is 18 x 24, 1  depth, framed, stretched canvas print Signed Canvas or Paper Prints Available, Contact Artist for more information. mary@maryspaintings.com

Where the Sky Remembers - framed stretched canvas print.  There is a sacred calm in the way evening settles over the Basin country, a hush that carries the weight of seasons, storms, and the enduring spirit of South Louisiana. The colors drift across the horizon like a soft benediction, reminding us that even in a world marked by change, there are moments of pure, unbroken grace. In this painting, the lake becomes a keeper of light, the sky a keeper of memory, and the whole scene a tribute to the landscapes that have shaped generations. It is a love letter to Louisiana — its waters, its skies, cormorants nesting in the cypress trees and the quiet strength that lives in Southern Louisiana.
