Stop in Richard Boyd Art Gallery in July and relax while viewing a presentation of beautifully detailed paintings that made me pause to take in their beauty, intricate details or contemplate the underlying meaning they convey. Immerse yourself in a world of textures, colors, and details as you explore a range of contrasting styles from impressionism to realism, featuring a magnificent selection of original visual art created by artists from diverse backgrounds. The artists’ individual styles, choice of mediums and color palettes give them distinction in the visual arts community.

The exhibit is comprised of a stunning selection of paintings, each created with heartfelt emotions from the soul of the artist drawing viewers into a moment in time when an event, scene, or color inspired them to create. Whatever the inspiration, these paintings will remain relevant through the years.

The exhibit showcases works by highly regarded, award-winning artists among them Jane Herbert a distinguished fine and commercial artist known for her calming, beautifully detailed acrylic paintings; Deena S. Ball a nationally renowned art educator and instructor known for her use of watercolor on unconventional surfaces; Patricia Chandler a distinguished fine and commercial artist, art instructor, illustrator, and retired art educator well known for her knowledge and ability to create original art across all genres; Carrin Culotta recognized for her traditional style plein air and in studio oil paintings; Tim Eaton a nationally recognized commercial and fine artist known for his landscape paintings; and HM Saffer II an internationally renowned, award-winning performing and visual artist famed for his magnificently layered pointillist style landscape paintings.

The exhibit is open free of charge from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. daily from July 1st through July 29th, 2025. For more information the gallery by phone (207)-712-1097, email info@richardboydartgallery.com or visit the gallery’s website www.richardboydartgallery.com .

This weekly “backyard party” makes the most out of the easy Sundays afternoons of summertime!

Bring a lawn chair or blanket to enjoy an afternoon at the farm! Come and listen to live music, have a pint of a local beer, snack on a bison hot dog, visit the farm store and bring the kiddos to meet our friendly farm animals.

Each week features a concert of local musicians from diverse genres: rhythm & blues, jazz, Americana and more. Each open-air concert is the perfect backdrop for family and friends to lounge in the late afternoon sun and soak up the remaining moments of a Maine summertime weekend.
