September Art Exhibit

Charcoals by Rox Corbett

Rox Corbett is an award-winning charcoal artist who makes representational drawings mostly of animals. Her pictures are detailed and textural, somewhat abstract in composition, and full of shadows and light. An important aspect to her work is conveying the behavior or spirit of the animals she depicts, sometimes in humorous ways. 

She first came to Lubec in the fall of 1983 as one of the “whale people”, and worked field seasons for the New England Aquarium throughout the 80’s and 90’s.
Rox received a BFA degree from Concordia University , Montreal. She splits her time between Lubec and a ranch on the Clark’s Fork of the Yellowstone River in Wyoming with her Dutch Shepherd, Echo and a lot of grizzlies.

She will be exhibiting framed prints of her work and will offer prints to be sent directly to buyers. Half of the proceeds over the cost of printing and shipping will be donated to the Lubec Memorial Library. 

Washington County 4H Photo Contest

on display at the Lubec Memorial Library through the month of September.

October Art Show

Handicrafts by Veronica Wright

The day I saw a patchwork denim quilt, I said, “I could do that!!’  And I did!  It began my interest in all things denim.  The fabric is perfect for embroidering on.   Blue jean pockets became small purses or finished with driftwood, became wall  hangings!

The result of embroidering one stitch at a time is like painting one brush stroke at a time!  So I began painting as well. I enjoy painting on found things, like an antique sled which is in the show.

Some things were made for fun or by request,  including the train theme, Maine lingo and this wall hanging that spells “LUBEC” in nautical flags.  

Enjoy the wide variety of my projects at the library this October!  Your feedback would be appreciated!
