Experience the art of connection!

Can I help?

This playful yet soulful collie, decked out in a jaunty red neckerchief, captures the heart of the Somerset countryside with his curious gaze and warm energy. The golden rays of sunlight filter through the clouds, casting a soft halo around his fur—a perfect nod to the sacred beauty of the Tor rising in the distance.

He’s more than just a handsome face; he’s your faithful companion on life’s journey, ready to bound over hills or sit by your side, soaking up the quiet majesty of the landscape. The iconic Glastonbury Tor adds a touch of magic, making this piece not just a portrait of a dog, but a celebration of loyalty, warmth, and the connection between human and nature.

Curiosity Interrupted.

This painting captures the timeless beauty of Dorset’s iconic Corfe Castle—but with an unexpected guest stealing the spotlight! Just as the scene’s grandeur settles in, a cheeky woolly companion pops into frame, turning a classic landscape into a playful story.

With its inquisitive gaze and perfectly timed ‘photobomb,’ the sheep seems to be asking, “Am I in the shot?” This whimsical moment reminds us that nature has its own way of joining the adventure, blending humour and spontaneity into an otherwise serene setting.

“Curiosity Interrupted” celebrates those unplanned, joyful interruptions that make life—and art—truly unforgettable.

Fancy a Chat

With the enchanting backdrop of the New Forest stretching far and wide, this charismatic equine steals the show. Bursting with personality and cheekiness, the horse leans into the frame, meeting the viewer’s gaze with a playful expression that seems to say, “Fancy a chat?”

Marja’s sweeping depiction of the New Forest’s natural beauty provides the perfect stage for Samantha’s spirited animal character to take centre stage. The vibrant blend of humour and tranquillity makes “Forest Greetings” a delightful piece that captures both the grandeur of the landscape and the joy of an unexpected encounter.

“Double the Talent, Twice the Charm”

At Kinship on Canvas, each painting is a labour of love and collaboration, bringing together Marja’s stunning landscapes and Sam’s whimsical animals. Because we run our own art business, we have a limited number of paintings available, making each one a truly special addition to your home.

Our works are created on large canvases, approximately 100 x 100 cm, giving the art plenty of space to shine. As each piece is a collaboration, the price reflects the care, time, and talent of two artists bringing their vision to life. But don’t worry if this size is a little too grand for your walls! We also offer limited edition print runs, available on canvas or paper, so everyone can enjoy a slice of the magic.

Whether it’s an original painting or a carefully crafted print, you’re investing in art that celebrates creativity, connection, and a love for life’s little joys.
