Featured Artists
In unmistakable fashion, Tom Hall captures the rugged, haunting beauty of the Maine landscape. Whether pristine or impacted by human hands, Hall emotionally conveys the true spirit of the place depicted.
My most recent work fully embraces my love of architecture and structure, but with a definite shift towards unstable angularity and strong diagonal formations.
I find inspiration in organic textures, shapes, patterns, rhythms and processes, and enjoy working in media that allow me to explore those elements.
Pamela Moulton works with textiles and recycled materials to achieve a trompe l’oeil effect, playing between organic and man-made objects and materials to trick the viewer into second guessing what is natural and what is artificial.
Sam Lawrence, a native of Yarmouth, Maine started working in glass in 2002. After seeing a show of glass art in western Massachusetts and a glassblowing demonstration in Murano, Italy, Sam knew he wanted to be a glass artist. While taking several classes in various glass art techniques over the years, Sam is mostly self-taught. Sam maintains a studio in Brunswick Maine.
My artwork is characterized by experimental abstraction using reclaimed ceramic materials and referencing natural land forms, constantly pushing my materials and processes into new territory. I have developed a low-waste making system by collecting discarded ceramic materials and recycling them into new forms.
Christine Tegeler Beneman is a painter and printmaker who lives and works in Portland, Maine.
Alison Hildreth incorporates ideas from research in cartography, astronomy, environmental studies, history, philosophy, and literature as a launching pad into her work, but many of her ideas come from walking and daydreaming.
In my paintings, I am exploring what is hidden…what lies beneath the surface…what is underneath the underneath.
Over the years I have translated the tides, seasons, people and places that I am inspired by into a design language that I continue to evolve everyday.
Kate Cheney Chappell is a painter, printmaker and installation artist who lives in Kennebunk, and maintains studios in Westbrook and Monhegan Island. Her suspended 3-D steel and paper installation, “Mother Ocean,” was on view as part of the Peregrine Press @ 30 show at Cove Street Arts this fall.
Michel Droge is a painter, printmaker and educator whose work engages with the environment and the human condition in an era of uncertainty.
Roy Germon’s landscapes convey a peaceful mood and the essence of a beautiful natural landscape. His paintings are a celebration of color and texture.
I am a visual artist living in Maine. I choose to work in encaustic, an ancient method of painting using wax and pigment fused with heat because this process allows me to make many thin, translucent layers as well as embed natural objects: A sheet of mica, a mineral, petals, plants, and insects. Within each piece, I layer some combination of grids, letters, numbers, geometric patterns, and natural forms. (Photo by Winky Lewis)
The repeated form in this work is made from a shadow cast on sun sensitive paper and joined to its mirror image. The form, by chance, resembles a butterfly. A totem is a vertical wooden pole with carvings of guardians or ancestral beings, usually supernatural, that are revered and respected.
