Experience the vibrant world of abstract art
Welcome to the
Rue Franklin Studio
You can watch videos below that showcase the creative process behind my art pieces.
These behind-the-scenes glimpses reveal how I layer and texture my work
using acrylic paints and spray paints that define my style.
Meet Mary
The Rue Franklin Studio is the creative home of Mary, a self-taught abstract artist based in Washington, DC.
Her work blends acrylic and spray paint in bold, expressive strokes—each piece built up slowly by hand, layer by layer, until it finds its own rhythm.
Originally from County Cork, Ireland, Mary has lived in Dublin, London, Lyon, and now Washington DC. Her paintings reflect that ever-shifting point of view—sometimes native, sometimes outsider, always observing. Through it all, themes of home, connection, and belonging surface again and again.
