DAMARISCOTTA
The Stable Gallery in Damariscotta is featuring the work of more than 40 Maine artists this month, all focused on September’s bountiful harvest.
Art Harvest, the final art show of the gallery’s 2018 season, opens Friday, Sept. 14. Nine local artists are featured in the main gallery, with another 30-plus artists displaying their works in adjoining spaces.
The gallery will host a public reception to meet the artists and see their work from 5-7 p.m. Friday. The gallery is open daily 10 a.m.- 5 p.m. and for the New Castle/ Damariscotta Art Walk until 7 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 21.
The September show features Daisy Greene’s acrylic paintings inspired by the towns, woods, and sea of eastern Maine. Hati Modr’s oil paintings shine with the sights and shadows of Monhegan Island.
Stephen Vowles creates wooden bowls and rolling pins that are both decorative and utilitarian. Similarly, Janet Percival knits hats and mittens for warmth, comfort and fashion.
Roz Welsh is displaying a wide variety of hand-crafted silver jewelry. Welsh also creates three dimensional paintings of nature.
Lori Watts brings an array of ceramic bowls, butter dishes, and vases covering a range of colors and designs. Nicholas Downing produces metal utensils and hooks.
Jennifer Litchfield is offering oil and acrylic paintings of sea and forest scenes.
Lastly, Bill Bellows is recognized locally for his twosided, woven wool rugs with striking geometric patterns. This show includes several of Bellows’ works; he also makes rugs on commission.
The Art Harvest show is installed at Stable Gallery through Oct. 19 when the gallery closes for the year.
