Searching for your own unique original Mary Loos Painting?

Are you looking to bring a feeling of calm and peace to your home or wish to have a focal point of delightful colour? Does waking to serene blues in water reflections sound dreamy? If it does, my work may speak to you. You can find my original acrylic and oil paintings in the shop on this site and in person in Merrickville at The Yellow Canoe Cafe located at 108 St. Lawrence Street and at Fiona Macintyre Design located at 141 St. Lawrence Street and at The Pews Event venue located at 100 St. Lawrence Street.

Twinkle & Tiding Night Market is coming up at The Boathouse Cafe, 646 River Road, North Grenville, November 28. I’m using my gelli plate printer to create some original cards pictured here. It’s always a good and chaotic time experimenting and creating each hand printed card. Each one is unique.

The following week, I’ll be taking part in Christmas in Merrickville “The Art of Giving” show on December 5th 2026 at the Merrickville Community Centre 106 Read Street, Merrickville. Artists, artisans and makers featuring unique, handmade & artful Christmas gifts.

Inside
my world

I feel lucky to have spent most of my life enjoying Ontario’s lakes and rivers. Growing up in the Thousand Islands continues to inspire my waterscapes — those islands, channels and changing light have an enduring way of finding their way into my work.

Paddling through these waterways in my kayak, I gather moments and images that become stylized impressions on canvas. The seasons slip into the paintings as well — autumn’s warm reflections and contrast in fields and sky are a favourite subject. I love Ontario’s ever-changing, enchanting palette to draw from.

Now living in the village of Merrickville, beside the Rideau Canal — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — I’m fortunate to be surrounded by historic charm and an active arts community. Merrickville is full of artists, and I’m a proud member at large of the Merrickville Arts Guild. This community, the waterways and the seasons together continue to fuel my creative practice and the unique original artwork I share.
