The ocean is inspiration for so many of us and this month I was one of the sea-loving artists featured in this fantastic article. It's in newsstands now and would be a perfect end of summer beach read (bring a sweater)!
Don't forget my upcoming shows:
This weekend!
Scarborough Fine Crafts Show at Camp Ketcha
Date: September 17th & 18th
Time: Saturday 10-5, Sunday 10-4
Location: Held at Camp Ketcha, 336 Black Point Road, Scarbouough, ME.
Treat yourself these last beautiful days of summer! Come to lovely Camp Ketcha on the Scarborough shoreline and meet some of Maine's finest professional craftspeople who create tomorrow's heirlooms today. Here you will find woodworkers who choose their trees with care, who design and fashion their pieces from raw materials to finished furniture, bowls and utensils. You'll meet potters who mix their own clays and glazes, who fire colorfully carved pieces or earth-toned wood-fired work. Meet jewelers who work with precious metals and gems, glass, bone and stone; fiber artists who create natural fiber clothing, quilts, and wall pieces. Fine basketry, blown glass, bookbinding, and more... all the time-honored crafts are here, and all are made locally, made by hand, and made to last.
Admission: $5; children admitted free.
Proceeds benefit Camp Ketcha and the Maine Crafts Guild.
