A feast of approximately 80 pieces of artwork – from photographs to paintings to pottery to assemblage pieces – populates the current member show at River Arts gallery in Damariscotta. While this may sound like a lot to digest – and, in a sense, it is – the number of pieces on display at the gallery is less than would have been displayed in the past, thanks to the keen organizational eye of Alice de Mauriac and her husband, Julio Sanchez-Banos, who began hanging all of the River Arts shows last fall.

Review: Printmaker and Painter R. Keith Rendall’s Art is Truly Fine
If one Googles the term “fine art,” one comes up with two definitions: 1) “creative art, especially visual art, whose products are to be appreciated primarily or solely for their imaginative, aesthetic, or intellectual content,” and 2) “an activity requiring great skill or accomplishment.” The work of Wiscasset artist and master printmaker R. Keith Rendall qualifies as fine art on both accounts. His meticulous copper-plate etchings of landscapes are fascinating; his paintings are colorful, imaginative, and playful; and his massive woodcuts of wildlife are no less than stunningly beautiful.

Fabric-Collage Artist at Saltwater Artists Gallery
Linda Shepard made traditional quilts for years before taking lessons with Susan Carlson in fabric collage. “Using fabric for the palette allows for a playful and liberating way to work with this medium,” Shepard said. “The technique is much like making a mosaic. I let the imagery and design elements build spontaneously, intuitively, without the interference of a predetermined result. In this way, I am often surprised by the direction a piece takes.”
