Maine Art Hill three artist show

Maine Art Hill is having a three artist show featuring new works from Liz Hoag, Trip Park, and Janis H. Sanders. The show will run from August 11 – 30, 2018 at Maine Art Shows on 10 Chase Hill Road, Kennebunk, ME and is open everyday at 10am. There will be an opening reception on Saturday, August 11, 2018 from 5 – 7pm with live music, refreshments, and a chance to meet the artists.

Liz Hoag, a Maine artist, has found beauty in the most simple of pleasures; looking at the amazing play of light and sky as it winds around, in and through the branches of the incredible trees that decorate our entire state. Starting with a dark canvas, or negative space, she builds up by adding light. The result is a “stained glass” image that is both abstract and representational.

Trip Park was drawn to advertising long before he illustrated and eventually painted. After graduating from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, he first worked as an Art Director with ad agencies Leo Burnett, Chicago, and with Saatchi & Saatchi, New York. But working with and hiring his favorite illustrators through the help of being an Art Director gave him an intoxicating look into their side of creative world. He has illustrated a number of children’s books and helped develop characters for animated features and commercials.

Janis Sanders has always found his inspiration from the outside world and how it interacts with man and the objects we build. His stunning use of sky and light combined with structures and vessels has become his signature.“My self-assigned task for each work, is to convey the ethereal ‘thing’ of light in the paint, as the sun casts its breath on the world, a definite sky and subsequent horizon line define space. Each painting for me begins with the sky, it is like a curtain that is the backdrop for a vast stage.”
