SUMMARY:Water’s Embrace: The Works of Jerri Finch
DESCRIPTION:Waterfall Arts Presents Water’s Embrace: The Works of Jerri Finch\nOn View: September 10–October 10\, 2026 \nOpening Reception\nThursday\, September 10 | 5:30 – 7:30 PM\nWaterfall Arts | Clifford Gallery \nArtist Talk\nThursday\, October 1 | 6:00 PM \nFor more than 40 years\, artist Jerri Finch has been painting water. Through decades of exploration\, her practice has evolved from appliqué to airbrush and machine quilting\, and ultimately to oil painting. With Water’s Embrace\, Finch shares her ongoing pursuit of something beyond the visual representation of water: its movement\, sensation\, atmosphere\, and transformative power. \nFor Finch\, water is not simply a subject. It is an immersive experience. She shares its fluidity\, the salt on her lips\, the wind in her hair\, the droplets of fog on her face\, and the sensation of surrendering herself to the water. All of these experiences inform her work. \nCold-water immersion has become an especially transformative part of Finch’s life and creative practice. When the water calls\, she enters its cold embrace to float\, swim\, or gently move with it. These experiences shape her understanding of water\, not just as something to observe\, but as something to feel. \nWater’s Embrace is an invitation to experience water through Finch’s eyes\, but also through the senses. Water is the liquid that makes life on Earth possible. As water cycles from the air to the land to the sea and back again\, it shapes our planet and nearly every aspect of our lives. These works explore the fluidity\, energy\, and surrender that come from being immersed in something larger than oneself. There is a peace and joyfulness in this body of work\, a sense of fulfillment that time by and in the ocean offers us. \nThrough this collection\, Finch hopes to inspire viewers to do more than look at the water. Instead\, she invites us to embrace it in new and playful ways.

SUMMARY:OH MY GODDESS: Art Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Through painting\, printmaking\, sculpture\, mixed media and other forms\, participating artists explore the feminine as sacred\, powerful\, nurturing\, resilient\, sensual\, natural\, complicated and sometimes contradictory. The result is an exhibition that moves between ancient ideas of the goddess and contemporary experiences of womanhood\, motherhood\, nature\, identity and power. \nRather than asking artists to conform to a single interpretation of the theme\, Artsworth invited them to respond freely. The resulting work ranges from the intimate and personal to the mythological\, political and playful. \nOh My Goddess opens Friday\, September 19\, with a public reception from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at Artsworth\, 25 Pine Street in Ellsworth. The exhibition continues through October 24. \nThe opening will also launch an Artsworth silent-auction fundraiser\, featuring fine art\, jewelry\, blown glass\, pottery and other work. The auction will continue through Maine Craft Weekend and conclude October 3 at 4 p.m. \nArtsworth is a community arts organization in Ellsworth dedicated to bringing professional and aspiring artists together through exhibitions\, workshops\, artist talks\, performances and creative gatherings. Its programming is designed to encourage connection\, experimentation and participation in the arts within the greater Ellsworth community.

SUMMARY:People-Nature-Art with Sculptor Spencer Tinkham
DESCRIPTION:Spencer Tinkham is a self-taught\, award-winning American wood sculptor and multidisciplinary artist known for creating intricate macro- and micro-sculptures of birds and wildlife from reclaimed and salvaged material. His paintings\, sculptures\, and installations explore perception\, ecological change\, and natural history. \nThe Gilley is thrilled to bring him to Maine in September as the museum’s People-Nature-Art presenter. While here\, he will be working with children in local schools. \nWorking with carved wood\, painting\, and installation\, Tinkham creates forms that move between realism and abstraction. Through scale\, repetition\, and material tension\, his work transforms patterns found in nature into physical encounters that connect biological form with human emotion. Rather than depicting the natural world directly\, the work shifts familiar forms into psychologically charged states\, inviting viewers to reconsider how they perceive and relate to the living world. \nThe ecological fates of birds and humans are intertwined\,” he says. “I share specific stories of birds as a witness to natural and manmade change. Their fragile beauty and unsung voices become magnified so as not to be missed by the careless eye.”
