Summer in Maine Continues!
The days are getting ever so slightly shorter and the golden sun has started adding more oranges and pinks to the sky. Hot sunny air lingers until night falls and the breeze cools, carrying the faint smell of campfires and the songs of loons. The works of Ben Boothby, Lee Gordon, Rebecca Hayes, and Robin Swennes exemplify this incredible season in Maine. Boothby brings together shape, form, color, and line in the masterful detail of his wood sculptures. Gordon fuses the elements of Maine’s marshes and oceans in his glass vases. Hayes turns her hyperrealistic style toward the Forest City, painting iconic locations from the greater Portland area. And Swennes honors one of Maine’s most important agricultural crops and symbols in her immersive paintings of blueberries.
Summer isn’t over. Come see us on the wharf.
Opening Reception Friday August 2nd, 5-7:30pm.
