To Be Loved Bayou

In To Be Loved Bayou, I sought to capture the intricate web of connections that define New Orleans, mapping its neighborhoods, streets, and waterways in a dynamic and textured way. Using a washed watercolor technique around the river and layering thick textures to highlight each block, I brought to life the rich diversity of the city through distinct color palettes. From the golden vibrance of the French Quarter to the lively energy of the Garden District, each neighborhood holds its own unique identity. This piece is a tribute to the people and communities that make New Orleans a place of deep connection and endless inspiration.

For many collectors, this piece becomes especially personal through a hand-embellished canvas rework, where Casey can add a painted marker to highlight a home, neighborhood, wedding venue, or place that holds significance. To Be Loved Bayou is a celebration of the places that shape us and the city so many are proud to call home.

Available in paper, canvas, and hand-embellished canvas prints.

Paper Print - Printed on flat fine art paper using professional giclée printers. Includes a white border for easy framing and a printed signature on the bottom right. Sizes up to 16x20 ship flat; larger prints ship rolled in a tube.

Canvas Wrap - Printed on archival gloss canvas and stretched over a 1.5” wood frame with the image wrapped around the sides. Comes ready to hang with wire and a printed signature on the bottom right.

Artist Embellished Canvas - A canvas print enhanced by the artist with thick, textured acrylic brushstrokes for a one-of-a-kind finish. Hand-signed and available with optional personalization for an added fee.

Floating Canvas Frame - While canvas wraps don’t require a frame (since the artwork continues beautifully around the edges)  adding a wooden floating frame offers a refined, modern touch. The subtle gap between the canvas and frame creates a “floating” effect that elevates the piece. Each artwork arrives ready to hang with wire installed. Frame colors are artist-selected to best complement the artwork and may vary.
