Hole In The Wall Gallery presents paintings by Christina Eckerson, Marguerite Lawler and Caren-Marie Michel from September 29th, through November 12, 2023. The public is invited to a reception with the artists on Saturday, October 7, from 5-7pm.
Christina Eckerson is an oil painter, who is inspired by the natural world and the infinite expression that comes from the seasons, the time of day, and personal interpretations of the moment. Eckerson was introduced to patrons of Hole In The Wall Gallery last year when she had a successful solo show in June. She is a juried member of the Copley Society of Art in Boston.
Marguerite Lawler likes to observe, to gather information, to organize, and to develop the foundations of her paintings through small studies in oil and gouache. Her subjects are the wooded and watery environments of Maine; her focus is the effect of light on the landscape. What interests Lawler as a painter is the studying of the high contrast of shadows and the forms they create. She is not looking to paint the panoramic or infuse romantic sensibilities; rather, she looks to capture the austerity of the moment.
Caren-Marie Michel is a devoted plain air painter working in acrylic and pastel on locations all over
Maine and New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, Canada. Michel often portrays a location through
series capturing different seasons or times of day with changing light across New England. Two of
her paintings were included in Paintings Of Portland, by David Little and Carl Little, Down East Books.
