Art by Peggy Hemberg Bosse
From Peggy: As an artist and native of this beautiful state, outside is my favorite place to be.
There is so much nature to take in and so many colors to admire.
I feel so fortunate I see the many colors in the world the way I do and enjoy splashing them on the canvas.
I paint with all mediums, but oils always seem to pull me in. I start my paintings on a blank canvas with no plan in mind and no idea where each piece will take me. I often switch gear’s halfway through and enjoy the surprise of the finished piece.
Painting is my relaxation and each time I pick up a brush, I’m switched into the present moment.

Geno (Gene) Fahn
From the Artist: Lives in Western Mountains area of Maine.
Retired from many things. Spent many years in the sign design fabrication business and graphic arts. Dabbled in various arts such as "Found metal "art, welding and blacksmithing where I made many floral type wrought iron sign brackets and hardware and other things throughout my life now at 73.
Just recently getting back into painting after a long hiatus and I will call it Contemporary art in the Barn Quilt style. Most are enamel paintings on ACM to replicate stain glass windows.
Also a musician of sorts. Enjoy playing my ukuleles, blues harmonicas and conga drums.
