THE MARITIME PAINTED SALTBOX FINE ART GALLERY IS NOW OPEN by APPOINTMENT ONLY. THE GALLERY IS BEING REHUNG, THE WEBSITE IS UNDER MAINTENANCE, AND YOU ARE WELCOMED TO LEAVE A MESSAGE ON OUR PHONE, BUT THAT TOO IS SOMEWHAT UNINTENDED, SO THE BEST WAY AROUND THESE CHALLENGING CIRCUMSTANCES IS TO EMAIL US. WE ANTICIPATE THAT EVERYTHING WILL RETURN TO NORMAL IN ABOUT TEN DAYS. SO HAVE A LOOK AT THE WEBSITE AS IT IS AND IF YOU SEE ANYTHING THAT INTERESTS YOU, MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO SEE US.
WITH THANKS TOM & pETER
Art balancing himself precariously on an Abstracted Buoy (trying to make a Graceful Splash) asks, What Is Art.? Cogitating briefly, The Abstracted Buoy even with parts missing can display some famous artists answering the question. Click on the image to enlarge, The next image you would see Art falling into the water and the Abstracted Buoy gracefully, and you could say almost with artistry extend his the rope to Art and saving the day. This vinyl banner is featured on our outdoor gallery, the pergola.
