  • "Mara has created multiple pieces of artwork that we cherish around our home. She has created the most incredible pieces that we gave to our sister as a wedding gift. We couldn’t recommend her enough."

    —Robert & Olivia Donovan

  • "Mara has been a wonderful person, full of energetic kindness, since the moment we first connected. This flows into her passion for art and for finding or creating that special piece for the client (soon-to-be friend). I ordered a custom piece painted on a naturally harvested wood round, and I am so happy with the result. Mara walked through the design phase with me and followed along step by step, ensuring her artwork reached my hands safely. And it is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!"

    —Mitch Guitard

  • "I discovered Mara on INSTAGRAM a few yrs ago & fell in love with her West Coast Oil on Cavas paintings. Exploring Mara’s art on her Website I discovered the Sand Ripples. I spent many days as a kid in Sooke, French Beach & Jordan River. Sand Ripples takes me back to those days & why I still love to go. Mara was so heart warming when we chatted several times through her site & so kind to allow me to make payments on my 1st oil painting ever!! Since Sand Ripples I also purchased Rosas Oil. Love my garden & Rosa reminds me of how beautiful nature is. I feel so blessed to have these painting to remind me every day of my travels to the West Coast. Mara your Art is an inspiration, so very talented. Thank you with love❤️"

  • "I got to know a snippet about Mara and exposure to her amazing artistry through dogs. Dogs have always brought some of the best people into my life, and Mara is no exception. Mara's talent and gifts to her works of art have captured the beauty and expression in all of her pieces. One day I hope to commission Mara to do a challenging piece for me that encompasses something we are both very passionate about. For now, I admire Mara's work through her web page. It's exciting to see that these beautiful art pieces are sold all around the world and that this glorious artist is only a stone throw away."
