The Kittery Art Association presents ‘Personal Favorites’

The Kittery Art Association will present a collection of its artists’ triumphs. “Personal Favorites” will be on view at the Kittery Art Association from Sept. 19 to Oct. 20, with an opening reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Sept. 20. Free and open to the public, light refreshments will be provided.

Also on view are works by spotlight artist Jack Calabrese, who says, “My journey as an artist began approximately 10 years ago as a ‘bucket list’ comment I made that my wife took hold of and ran with. The inspiration was inside of me and her thoughtful action set my creative outlet into motion. Like many beginning painters, I was largely ignorant of the fundamental aspects of painting. I learned through instructional books, videos, workshops, a lot of easel time, and a lot of failed paintings. I’ve come to understand that painting is a lifelong lesson in humility, yet I’ve grown to love the process and how it makes me view the world through a different lens.”

The Kittery Art Association is at 2 Walker St., Kittery. Learn more at www.kitteryartassociation.org, or call 207-451-9384.
