“Capturing Natural Maine” by Midcoast Maine Plein Air Artists
The magnificent coast of Midcoast Maine has always been an exciting location for plein air artists. A group of resident artists started painting out of doors together during Covid, and this informal group has grown and continued to work together. Since 2020, the group has held an annual exhibit of their work at a variety of locations, and the exhibition at the Refuge Visitor Center this year features paintings by seventeen artists in a variety of media.
“Earthly Delights” by Bettina Swirkal and John Bisignono
One could sum up the philosophy of these two artists of Owls Head Maine in the following statement:
“To make art is our way of communicating the abundant beauty of nature. We try to make art that will bring pleasure and awaken keener observation of the simple things around us.”
