What's New at Mary Lor Art?

Love Los Angeles Fundraiser 
Los Angeles is a special place for Mary who experienced many of life's milestones there.  She has created a Love Los Angeles motif in soothing shades of blue that evoke serenity and the beautiful water and sky of the city.   To help the victims of the LA fires, Mary has put this motif on products for sale.  Net proceeds from all sales in this collection will be donated to ReBUILD LA, a part of Habitat for Humanity Greater Los Angeles. 
Flower Stickers
Some pretty flowers from Mary's digital designs have been made into stickers.  There is a lotus, a cosmos, and a chrysanthemum.  Put them on notebooks, laptops, and anything else you want to decorate.

2025 Calendars
The 2025 Calendars have been extremely popular!  Good news if you wanted one and didn't receive it as a holiday gift -  they are heavily marked down.  There are only two left though! 
​
The 2025 calendar features very colorful paintings from Mary's imagination.  Click here for all the details.

​Made Using Fabric Designed by Mary

Mary's Rooftop Gardens design on Spoonflower was made into placemats and napkins by a customer.  So wonderful to see these designs turned into products!  For non-sewers or those without time to sew, Spoonflower also sells many home decor products made with Mary's designs.

Quoted on Banners in Central Park!
​

Mary's Instagram quote from the spring about what Central Park meant to her during the pandemic was put on banners in Central Park.  It was a big, thrilling surprise when Mary came across the banners while walking through the park one day.  She has subsequently seen them just inside three different entrances to the park - 79th St. & 5th Avenue, 106th St. & 5th Avenue, and 96th St. & Central Park West.  Look for them if you are at those entrances!

Shared on Instagram by Central Park 
​

"Cherry Tree Tunnel" was shared on Central Park's Instagram account along with this quote from Mary, "I don't go out often during this pandemic but for my occasional sanity walks, I head to the beauty of #MyCentralPark.  The trees, the water, the flowers, the wildlife, and the bird songs all give me joy and peace so I can carry on inside for a little longer."

Online Exhibition

"Golden Tree" is currently a part of "Hudson, So It Flows", a juried online exhibition of work inspired by the Hudson River.  See the show here.

Art Created during COVID-19
​Since early March, 2020, Mary has not been able to access her oil painting studio so she has been painting at home using water-based media such  watercolor, gouache, and acrylic.   She has also been needle felting wool paintings.  Go to this page to see some of her creations during this period.
