SUMMARY:Speaker - Andrew Milliken
DESCRIPTION:“Conserving and Restoring Habitats for Fish and Wildlife\nin the Face of Change in Small Point and Beyond” ~\n  \n \nSmall Point plays a critical role in the conservation of migratory fish and wildlife species that utilize the network of salt marshes\, beaches\, rivers\, and nearshore waters found here. Understanding the habitats and needs of these species is the starting point for strategically conserving and restoring them throughout the year and sustaining them into the future. Andrew will talk about the importance of collaborative partnerships in the Gulf of Maine\, Atlantic Coast and beyond to conserve and restore several Small Point species in the face of change.

SUMMARY:Art Show: Candy Barr
DESCRIPTION:Reception Sunday at 4PM \n\nCandy Barr \n \nCandy Barr is a plein air painter whose visual work includes oil paintings on canvas and wood. Her work has been described as “moving” and as being “a true master of color”.   With over 50 years of painting experience she brings a breadth of knowledge of art history\, exquisite skill for color and a deep understanding of what makes paint come to life. She earned her BFA with honors in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD)\, her MAT in lithography from RISD\, and an MFA in Visual Arts from Vermont College. She has served on the Faculty of Goddard College\, and has taught numerous workshops and courses since 1985. \nSince 1998 Barr has devoted herself to painting full-time\, and actively participates in painting and community building programs. She believes learning is a never ending process and continues her own development through research\, travel\, and regular visits to artists’ studios\, galleries and museums. \n‘My paintings are fresh in color\, light in tone\, and reflect an immediate response to the subjects being painted with a sense of harmony.  I paint quickly and in response to my environment as it constantly changes.  Through this experience working in plein air or from models\, my understanding of the unique aspects of the direction of light\, atmosphere\, and color is perpetually developing. \n“I prefer the time of day when colors are strongest – early and late in the day or when overcast and drizzly. I paint in an array of locations with a broad spectrum of rivers\, fields\, woods\, and of course the mountains.  As an active and prolific painter\, my daily work serves as a ritual through which my sense of place is ensured. \n“Making paintings brings me great pleasure while the unsettled world today contributes to my desire to seek comfort in nature.  I am most comfortable while intensely observing my environment and during the mindful processes of painting it.” \n

SUMMARY:Art Show: Juliet Kirkham
DESCRIPTION:Reception Sunday at 4PM \nI am a self-taught artist\, working out of my studio in Berkeley\, California. I have always been drawn to watercolor\, but learning to use this mercurial and mischievous medium is a recent exploration. I am constantly thrilled with the interplay between water and pigment and the individualistic and often erratic behaviors of watercolor paints. For me\, painting is a practice not a perfect – a constant way to witness and delight in the everyday world around us. \nThe content of this show was inspired by recent visits to the majestic Northern California coast. This rugged\, rocky coastline is home to beautiful wild flowers that bloom in the spring and early summer despite challenging conditions. They are simple and stubborn and worthy of study. I hope you enjoy my interpretation of the coastal wildflowers of Northern California.

SUMMARY:Speaker Series: Ron Joseph
DESCRIPTION:“A Maine Son: Memoirs of a Wildlife Biologist” \nRon will read select passages from his newly published book about the role Ron’s idyllic Maine childhood on his grandparents’ dairy farm in the 1950s and ’60s inspired him to become a Maine wildlife biologist. It’s a nostalgic look of a bygone era of a simple\, self-sufficient life without electricity or indoor plumbing. The book also provides a window into an era of the vast\, largely unbroken fabled Maine woods—and the hermits\, abundant wildlife\, and colorful characters that inhabited it— before unsustainable timber harvests and thousands of miles of logging roads reduced our forests to large clearcuts so vast\, he often sarcastically joked that they could be seen from the moon.

SUMMARY:Art Show: Hattie Motley
DESCRIPTION:Reception on Sunday at 4PM\n \nHATTIE MOTLEY Artist Statement: \nAs a teenager I started sewing with my sisters making clothes for ourselves on our mother’s sewing machine. Over the years I’ve decorated the places I’ve lived in with many curtains\, bedspreads and pillow covers. It wasn’t until I retired in 2000 that I bought a new computerized sewing machine with an embroidery arm and started taking classes at the local sewing store. From there I made everything from small quilts\, wallets and aprons to zipper pouches\, tote bags and embroidered purses. At Christmas I make most of my gifts on my sewing machine much to the delight of my family and especially my 10-year-old twin great nieces. \nAfter our sewing store closed and with no more inspiration from their classes\, I’ve focused more on tote bags and purses. Although I mostly follow patterns\, I’ve had fun adjusting those patterns by adding zippers and pockets to basic patterns as well as changing sizes to fit a cut out t-shirt front that I use as a focal point. The best part is in choosing the fabrics and colors to make my creations. The challenge is following complicated patterns and adding zippers\, closures and embroidery. \nI sew for fun! It keeps my mind sharp as I follow complicated directions. My perfectionist nature makes for much tearing out when I make mistakes and they are apparent. Despite the hours it takes to make these projects\, the final outcome is what gives me a feeling of satisfaction and pleasure. \nPlease take my creations down or pick them up and look inside to see what I’ve done. They are made with love and care (even my husband Elliot helps) and I hope you will enjoy them. \nHattie Motley Branson\nHatley Bags Unlimited \n   \n  \n

SUMMARY:Art Show: Ned Motley
DESCRIPTION:Reception Sunday at 4PM \n\nNED MOTLEY Artist Statement:  \nI’ve been a lifelong Small Pointer and currently live year round in nearby North Yarmouth. In 2012  I transformed a garden shed on my rural property into a cramped but very cozy and practical studio. I’ve been making functional pottery since high school but started pursuing it as a career in 2003. In ‘05 I graduated from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia with a BFA\, specializing in Craft. I’m inspired and influenced so much by the images and patterns of the natural world that surrounds me. And to me\, there is no other abstract artist who compares to our Mother Nature. I love the control and predictably of throwing symmetrical pottery on a wheel\, and then I get to be more spontaneous and chaotic in my glazing technique. Sort of a reflection of what’s really going on inside my brain! \nNedware Pottery has taken so many forms over the years\, yet it has consistently remained easily identifiable and very functional. I am mostly drawn to function and purpose in my work partly because I find it very grounding when much of my life feels fluid and unpredictable\, but also—I will confess—it can be so challenging and intimidating to venture out into the unknown of form for the sake of form rather than what it can do or be. I’ve had this good thing going and I like it’s predictability and popularity. I do aspire toward exploration and pushing the edge. I also like whimsy and silliness! Yet so often before a show I feel “under the gun” and find the familiar shapes and glazes an easy groove to slide back into. I write this almost 2 months before the actual show date. Will I have the time and motivation to diversify? Stay tuned \n  \n\n \n  \n\n \n

SUMMARY:Art Show: Katie Blair St John
DESCRIPTION:Reception Sunday at 4PM \nKatie Blair St John has spent every summer of her life in Small Point\, breathing in the colors\, composition and atmosphere. \nA great admirer of art from Italian Renaissance to Contemporary\, she foolishly was intimidated from taking painting classes because other students appeared to already know what they were doing. \nLocal painters\, Frank and Phyllis Mason and Mary Ester MacFadyen became her inspiration. In the 50’s and 60’s she’d watch them pick up an old\, wooden shingle and dash off a quick landscape while supposedly watching her gang of cousins swim or climb the rocks. The children felt very special if asked to sit for a portrait. These much loved paintings can be found all over Small Point. \nDuring the winter Katie Blair lives on the Great Marsh in Ipswich\, Massachusetts where there’s a thriving art scene. On her 60th birthday\, almost done with the rigors of work and raising 4 boys\, she began to paint\, first by herself then with artist friends. Now\, 10 years later\, she still paints two days a week Plein Air or from photographs in a studio with these artist mentors. She works in oil and pastel. \nContact info: katieblairstjohn@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Art Show: Jillian Herrigel
DESCRIPTION:Reception Sunday at 4PM \nBorn in Surrey England\, Jillian Herrigel grew up in Northern Virginia spending many home leave holidays touring coastal villages of Britain. Earning a degree in Art History and later a Master in Fine Art Education; she taught art for 14 years in a blue ribbon school district in New Jersey. After having summered for years in a fishing village in Maine\, Jillian changed direction in 2006 from teaching elementary art to work full time as an artist when she purchased a 19th century farm house in Bath\, Maine. Jillian believes a successful work conveys the interaction of her intuitive connection to the scene or idea\, a structure based on a combination of color\, shapes\, line and techniques as well as accidental events. She describes her work as “imaginative realism”. \nEmail: jillianherrigel@gmail.com     Phone: 973.255.7168

SUMMARY:Speaker Series: Joseph Hall
DESCRIPTION:“What If the Morse Mountain Was Not at the End of a Road but at the Intersection of Two?” \nBates College Associate Professor of History and Environmental Department Chair Joe Hall\, will speak to the contrast between the Native view and use of the land and marshes surrounding Morse Mountain with that of the European settlers. The Bates Morse Mountain Conservation Area is near the end of a long access road which is itself at the end of the state highway that winds from Bath through Phippsburg. But what if we thought of this place as at the intersection of this overland roads and a much older portage that connects Atkins Bay to Small Point Harbor by way of the Morse and Sprague Rivers? Considering this question raises new questions about the continuing presence of Wabanakis in Phippsburg and other parts of Midcoast Maine.
