Thanks for Dropping By!

I’m Mary-Jo Lough, a Calgary-based abstract artist. My energetic and bold work serves as a visual expression of my interior thoughts and emotions, reflecting my journey as a neurodivergent individual with ADHD. At the heart of my work is the challenge of harnessing chaos, which allows me to convey rich emotional depth. By sharing my story, I aim to normalize neurodiversity and promote inclusivity.

I welcome commissions and love collaborating with clients to create meaningful pieces. If you resonate with my style but don't see the perfect piece, let's work together to bring your vision to life!

what collectors have to say about commissioning Mary-Jo

  • "I love your work! I have purchased 4 pieces now, one for myself and the others as gifts to loved ones. Needless to say, they have all been very well received! I appreciate your kindness and patience when I commissioned a work but didn’t really know what I wanted. You were able to walk me through the process and I ended up with a fabulous addition to my collection!"

  • "Mary-Jo is such a talent.  She was an absolute pleasure to work with and the piece she created, aptly titled "Frequency", is a perfect addition to a music lovers home."

    Kelly Abedris
  • Mary-Jo is a very talented artist… a dream to work with.  I gave her a very weird request for a commission and she knocked it out of the park.  The depth and colouring in the work is a conversation piece in itself
