Gloucester, MA painter Dale Ratcliff is steeped in the tradition of Cape Ann American Impressionism. Her energetic seascapes capture the dynamism of that rocky coast and the significance of the historic seaports in that area. But Ratcliff is no stranger to Maine. She has painted our rocky coast, harbors, woods and mountains, from Boothbay to Bar Harbor and Acadia to Katahdin for decades. We have just received eleven paintings from Dale, three of which are shared here. You may view her other new works on her artist page our website, link in bio. Even better is to see these masterful works in person! The weather is lovely and the leaves are turning here in Brunswick making it a perfect destination for a Fall road trip! We’d be delighted to welcome you. Lastly, you can see from the three paintings above that Dale paints in sizes for every budget. From intimate 8” x 10” canvases that will fit in that one last spot you’ve been looking to fill, to spectacular 30” x 40” canvases that become the centerpiece of a room. We are always happy to help you find what you are looking for and we can ship anywhere!

A lovely new painting by Stapleton Kearns has come to the gallery! Titled “South Bristol Inlet”, the oil measures 26” x 29” and exemplifies Kearns’ plein air style - natural color and light with a deft American Impressionist touch!

With a hint of fall just coming into the air here in Maine, we’d love to have you stop by the gallery and see Stapleton’s masterful painting in person. If you are outside the area, you may view all of Kearns’ artwork we have at the gallery on our website, link in bio.

New paintings from Ray Crane and Marieluise Hutchinson have arrived at the gallery! Both Crane and Hutchinson have an eye for detail and tend to paint at modest sizes but their finesse with a brush and the quality of light they render makes their works feel much larger. Crane is known for his marine paintings that feature the wonderful windjammers that sail out of the many harbors along the coast of Maine. He often will depict them along with iconic lighthouses that dot the coast. Marieluise has a distinctive style and is well loved for her paintings of rural New England, especially in winter.

You may view their new work on our website, link in bio. You will see that each artist we represent has their own page with all available works, including sizes and prices, clearly shown. If you are in town, please come by the gallery and see these paintings in person - you won’t be disappointed!

Tom Hughes has delivered several amazing paintings to the gallery for this season. His signature blend of painterly realism and Maine coast subjects has made his work a favorite of Bayview Gallery collectors for more than a decade now. Tom cut his teeth as an illustrator for the Christian Science Monitor before turning to painting full time. He is a multi-award winning painter including the Plein Air Salon Art Competition Grand Prize from Plein Air Magazine in 2019. The featured painting is titled “Morning Mist” and depicts a cluster of water-craft at a dock as sunlight warms a gentle summer haze in the background. Tom devotes the foreground to a subtle study of reflected light on water capturing both the atmospheric sky above and the green translucence below. “Morning Mist” is oil on panel and measures 16”x20”.

You really need to experience Tom’s paintings in person to appreciate his skill with the brush - stop in the gallery and come see for yourself! You may also view all of Tom’s paintings on our website, link in bio.

Joanne Tarlin paints in metaphors that reflect the complexity of our current experience. She writes “Like the social world in which we live, nature represents our strengths, oddities and failures in full display”. Tarlin emphasizes these sentiments by employing vigorous mark-making with her brush and palette knife into a luscious surface of thick oil paint. Darkness and light come forward and recede on her canvases like the ebb and flow of the sea upon rocks or shadows flickering through dense thickets. Her paintings are intriguing and contemplative journeys that mirror her own life journey.

The featured painting is oil on linen at 24” x 18” and titled “Many a Flower Wafts Aloft”.

Come by the gallery and experience Joanne’s paintings in person or explore her artists page on our website. If you find something you’d like, be in touch! We can ship anywhere.

What would summer in Maine be without some time spent on a lake? Belgrade, Kezar, Sebago, and the mighty Moosehead have been host to generations of locals and visitors alike. Unlike the ocean with its dramatic tides and pounding surf, a day lakeside conjures up perhaps a bit more relaxation and leisurely exploration of the shoreline or a quiet paddle through dappled light from overhanging leaves.

In Wendy Newcomb’s painting titled “Once a Tree”, she captures an idyllic inlet looking out on a sweeping Maine vista. A worn and weathered tree trunk stretches into the foreground inviting explorers of all ages to paddle up and have a look or climb out to the end and jump off into the cool water. Wendy’s painting is oil on panel, 12” x 24”.

We have a great selection of Newcomb’s paintings at the gallery. Stop in to see them in person or view them on our website on Wendy’s Artist Page, link in bio.

Bayview Gallery takes its name from Bay View Street in Camden and we spent many wonderful years there while maintaining our current location in Brunswick. Camden harbor is home to a number of wooden sailboats of varying size and when they are at dock they are irresistible to artists! The curves, the lines, the shining varnish and brass offer endless opportunities to get inspired. For their lucky passengers they represent a unique way to experience the coat of Maine from the water. The featured painting is titled “The Mary Day, Camden” by George Van Hook. It is an oil on canvas, 14” x 11”. George’s painting captures the boat from its stern is his energetic Impressionist style. If your summer adventures bring you to the coast, we would love to see you in the gallery! For when you can’t be with us, all of George’s paintings as well as those by our other artists are available to view on our website, link in bio.
