Painted Fiction: Curated by Barbara Sullivan
Curated by artist Barbara Sullivan, Painted Fiction celebrates the work of over a dozen dynamic Maine artists who are redefining the timeless art of painting with fresh, imaginative, and innovative approaches. Together, their works breathe new energy into the practice of painting, capturing the ironic, nostalgic, romantic, and even grotesque facets of our current culture. Each piece offers a vivid reflection of our world through the artist’s eyes, inviting viewers to rediscover the magic of painting, explore their own interpretations, and connect the art to their personal experiences.
