In Where the Mountains Keep Watch, the wilderness gathers around a single cabin tucked beneath towering pines, as if the land itself has chosen to shelter it. The river moves with a soft, steady glow, carrying reflections of sky and timber like whispered stories of the valley. Above it all, the mountains rise in their ancient stillness — vast, unmoving sentinels whose presence can be felt even through the haze that softens their faces. The eagle’s wide arc becomes a blessing over the scene, a reminder that the wild sees everything, remembers everything, and holds its own quiet counsel. Specs: 18" by 24", 1.5 deep, gallery wrap, painted sides Signed Canvas or Paper Prints Available, Contact Artist for more information. mary@maryspaintings.com

Stillness Under the Driftwood - Tucked beneath the shelter of a fallen log, a young raccoon pauses in the quiet rhythm of the forest. Smooth river stones, worn by time and water, gather around its hiding place like a natural mosaic of soft grays, rose‑tinted browns, and cool earth tones. Light filters gently across the scene, catching the subtle textures of fur, wood, and stone, inviting the viewer into a moment of stillness at the water’s edge. This painting celebrates the intimate, often unseen world of Louisiana’s woodland wildlife—where curiosity, caution, and beauty meet in a single breath. It is 18 x 24, 1  depth, framed in a matching copper colored frame. Signed Canvas or Paper Prints Available, Contact Artist for more information. mary@maryspaintings.com
