Thursday evening, July 11, 5 p.m., at Page Gallery, 23 Bay View Street in Camden, Artist Colin Page will present. Colin's work is part of the current exhibit, Picnic in the Garden, on display June 20 through July 12. This event is free and open to the public.

Page is known for pushing his paintings to hold a maximum amount of color. He plays within the bounds of value to make representational paintings of Maine's landscape and the figures, boats and architecture within it, as well as both indoor and outdoor still life paintings.

His gestural paintings, the energy of his color and brushstrokes, emphasize and convey the joy and urgency of a vibrant and full life. For more information visit www.thepagegallery.com.
