April Featured Artists – Lynne Lockhart & Kirk McBride
April 3, 2025 · by ·
April means showing New Work by Lynne Lockhart and Kirk McBride. This is year 18 for this tradition. All year we watch what comes out of their studios but this gives us a time to put many of those paintings on our gallery walls. The past year has given Lynne and Kirk great scenery and even weather to paint. Lynne continues to find unsuspecting animals to capture while Kirk still finds beautiful sunrises and sunsets to show the beauty of our marshes and beaches. Take them away from the Eastern Shore and they come home with new studies or photographs as references for studio paintings. Check thier websites – Lynne Lockhart and Kirk McBride – to see their recent work. Check our Facebook page for albums of all of the paintings in the show.

March Featured Artist – Helene English
March 7, 2025 · by ·
March is a month that brings new color back to the gallery. Helene English is our featured artist. One series we have shown of her work was Ocean City paintings focused on Boardwalk icons. The themes of her paintings are everyday observations painted with intense color, bold composition and lots of imagination. She often captures human and animal experiences that are least expected. One of my favorite paintings is a pyramid of 14 happy dogs named Lots of Ruff, Ruff, Ruff. With our dogs in front of the painting It was a perfect backdrop for our annual holiday card.
