Magnificent Loon
Lucia Hackett
$150.00


Artist statement: I was out kayaking on a beautiful summer morning in NH. I knew there was a pair of loons with a chick and hoped our paths would cross. However knowing any encounter with a loon is magic. I crossed paths with this single loon and it made my heart flutter when he rose up in the water and his head was backlit by the sun’s reflection off the windows of a home on the hilly background. Perfect timing of the sun and earth’s rotation!

Selected for Exhibition
Artist statement: I enjoy feeding the birds during the Winter months so in early Spring it is unusual to see baby Blue Birds at the feeder.

Well this day there was much discussion at the bird bath and the baby Blue Bird wanted to take a bath and the Oriole said no! It was over in a few seconds. Oriole got his drink and baby Blue Bird took her bath!
Codman House Barn
Codman House Barn
George Hancin
$800.00

Selected for Exhibition
Artist statement: I am an observational painter, I paint from life. Most often I paint landscapes and could be called a Plein Air painter. I start each painting on location and I try to approach each one with a fresh and open point of view. Most of each painting is finished on the spot, but they are frequently reworked and adjusted in my studio. I try to make my paintings more than just a copy of a place but a narrative or documentary about a setting; creating a story and and a feeling about a place.
Specific medium: oil on board
