Currently, this painting 16″ x 20″ is on display at ASK Arts Society of Kingston, 97 Broadway through Nov. 2 along with other abstract paintings by regional artists. It expresses my feelings of a sense of place that is dear to my heart ever since 1973 when I arrived in Saugerties, NY.  The beauty of this park is unequal to any place that I have visited up until now.

I plan to speak about my experiences as an artist from childhood in northern Maine to producing hundreds of paintings of Seamon Park in Saugerties, New York at my closing party at the Saugerties Library, 91 Washington Avenue. The party is scheduled for 5:30 – 7:30 pm and I will speak at 6:30 pm and show slides of my artwork. Currently, sixteen paintings of the park are on exhibition in the downstairs gallery at the library through October  30, 2015.
