Fine Art and Craft Gallery specializing in Maine art.
Have you ever wondered what a Plein Air Painter paints when weather conditions do not allow the artist to paint outdoors? Interiors and still life subjects are some options and they can range from food, to flowers in a vase, to pots in the kitchen sink. Inspirational possibilities for paintings are boundless. Painters look for colors, values and shapes to compose their paintings and there are no subject limitations to what artists perceive as interesting or beautiful.
