When June arrives we all seem to turn our thoughts to the water that surrounds us so it seems the perfect time to feature the work of C. Keith Whitelock, a well-known marine artist. This Eastern Shore native captures working boats in the open bay, bay side marshes, and waterfront docks. The fine details in Whitelock’s realistic images are of a rapidly disappearing lifestyle of working boats, small villages and derelict structures. It is always exciting to see what part of the vanishing landscape he has found to paint. This year he has returned to oil and acrylic for a number of paintings. The opening reception is Friday, June 2 from 5 until 8. Whitelock will also be our Artist-in-Residence on Saturday, June 17.
