This Is What I’ve Been Talking About on Instagram Lately
On Instagram, I write about my life as an artist. Behind the scenes in the studio, preparing for art exhibitions, marketing opportunities, my garden inspirations, artist friends and my artistic journey.
You can follow all my posts here or follow me on Instagram. I also post to Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Threads and YouTube.
The season is official now. My grandson CJ has decorated the Tree. Since he was hanging his binky on the tree, he arrives each holiday season to decorate the tree with a lifetime of memories. We cherish all these moments!

Cosmic Phalaenopsis is an oil painting on deep cradled hardboard. Currently, it is on view in East Hampton, NY, in the Guild Hall Exhibition. This painting is for sale online or in person. Embedded in this painting is the message of the need for balance and cooperation, whether in the microcosm of the garden or in the macrocosm of the cosmos.
This artwork merges floral imagery with cosmic visions, blending the beauty of nature with the grandeur of the universe. Using transparent glazing, it symbolically intertwines the micro-realm of delicate flowers with the macro-realm of vast celestial bodies.

What a creative day we had making this wreath together. My friends Mary Schlotter and Lori Thornhill and I worked with homegrown evergreens to make this holiday wreath for the Memorial Corner in Centerport, NY, opposite the fire department. It`s one of my favorite garden club meetings of the year, where our club makes about 25 wreaths and over 50 arrangements to share throughout our community. We decorate the post offices, historical societies, libraries, and the VA Hospital in our area. Plus, we deliver the arrangements to individuals in hospitals, nursing homes, and rehabs to brighten up their days. The Centerport Garden Club is THE BEST!

My latest painting is titled, my New World – Anemone Redux. It’s 36 x 36“ oil, painting, on a deep Gallery wrapped canvas on which I have painted the edges so it can be hung without framing. This oil painting creates a fusion between botany and cosmic wonder. Using realism on parts of the flower and merging them with abstraction inspired by the cosmos. I suggest that patterns of nature repeat themselves from the smallest garden flower to the largest galactic structures. This brand new oil painting is available on my website under the Link Recent original paintings at MaryAhernArtist.com

Proud to be juried in as a full member of the Ceres Gallery in Chelsea New York City. Ceres is a feminist, not-for-profit, alternative gallery in New York City, dedicated to promoting contemporary women in the arts. It was founded 40 years ago at the height of the second wave of feminism during the early 1970s. Nevertheless, we persisted and we are continuing to raise our voices.
The members of Ceres Gallery believe the arts provide an important social service – that art has the power to educate, enhance and enrich the quality and depth of people’s lives.
The Landmark Arts building at 547 West 27th Street, NYC is the home of the gallery and is located adjacent to the Highline.

My latest article in November Sanctuary Magazine theme is "Aging Gracefully". I had fun writing this piece and paying attention to all my workarounds. Here`s the first paragraph.
“When are you going to stop?”
That’s a question I’ve heard more than once from people since I turned 70 some years ago. Why would I stop? Like everyone, my life has been a series of zigs and zags, some good, some less so. Life changes and we all adjust one way or another. Changing can be challenging but being flexible to new ideas and ways of doing things can provide a person with unexpected benefits, joys and experiences.
