In honor of National Blueberry Day, we are sharing a fantastic painting by one of our Maine artists. How fitting that she is from Maine?
"Here's Looking at Blue" is a 30" x 30" acrylic painting that would add a nice pop of color to any room! This, and several other smaller works by Robin are available to purchase at the N.W. Barrett Gallery.
Now open on Sundays 11-5 pm.

"Breath of Spring" by Maureen Spinale. This 36 × 36 acrylic painting radiates a quiet luminosity—an aspen grove aglow with greens and violets, as if each tree holds its own light.
Check out the Portsmouth Upstairs Gallery for more new spring works of art. A stunning selection!

Thank you Jean for sharing this special moment with us. Nature has a way of recognizing itself.

Our handcrafted thermometers, featuring birds and wildlife, bring that same quiet connection to your outdoor spaces—where art and the natural world meet in the everyday.
