Art should be a record of what has been and/ or bring out emotions in the viewer. It is not just the physical appearance of an object as displayed in a photograph. Art allows you to give the subject presence, atmosphere and mood. I aim to produce art that is a record of joy and beauty in all its forms or that calms, consoles or cheers the viewer. Art can be interpreted differently by each person that sees it. It can provide inspiration and lift the mood. You are seldom far from a piece of art work, from somebody’s interpretation of the world. In starting up this business I am aiming to spread my interpretation of the world and provide affordable art that enhances a room or provides an accurate memory of a beloved pet.

Examples of my work are shown in the Gallery. All these works are available to buy but also do keep an open mind! If you particularly like a piece but think it would look better in a different colour or a different background let me know! And of course your personal pet portrait is always available to order.

"Mary painted me a lovely canvas of my late dog, Freddie, and the likeness is amazing - it is almost like he is back amongst us looking down with approval, and that he has never really left us. A marvellous artist!" - Helen Urquhart.

 "Mary has expressed Brandy's character and her likeness in this lovely painting. A truly talented artist" - Janet Peters.
