I am incredibly honored — and absolutely thrilled — to have my October Marsh painting chosen as the cover image for the Sept/Oct issue of Art New England! This painting is one of 21 new encaustic landscapes that will be in my York, ME solo show Finding Joy.

New! Lots of sgraffito (carving) and vibrant peak foliage color in this little piece. It’s 8” x 8” and appropriately titled Autumn Textures.

My art blog includes write-ups on some of the most inspiring art exhibits I’ve seen. The latest: The Northern Lights exhibit at the Buffalo AKG Museum, with paintings by Scandinavian and Canadian landscape artists.

Maine moonlight is magical! I love the expansive, multi-colored halo and the dramatic blue outline the moonlight adds to these iconic Maine islands.

Studio visitors always want to reach out and touch my paintings. They’re surprised when I say it's OK. Unlike other painting media, encaustic is impervious to moisture and the oil on your fingers won’t harm the paintings at all.

Thanks for sharing my work!

Autumn in New England is hard to beat. The drought has meant more muted colors in real life this year, but not on my easel! These encaustics are in all sizes - from 6” x 6” to 30” x 40”. Some are in galleries, some on marciacrumleyart.com Message me with any questions.

Autumn paintings in vivid color palets, with lots of golden peak foliage. Several of the paintings feature birch trees, which I think have expressive personalities!

It's my favorite spot for wave watching!

Marcia Crumley Art @marciacrumleyart.bsky.social · 7d

I could sit here and watch this all day. Wave action at Two Lights State Park in Cape Elizabeth, Maine.

Queen Anne’s Lace reminds of carefree summer days. There's a field of Queen Anne’s lace along a coastal path near me. I like to think these flowers enjoy their coastal view as much as I do.

Have you driven around Downeast Maine lately? It’s that time of year: the blueberry barrens are gorgeous shades of red. This piece is a 24"x24" encaustic. I have a few larger ones available through galleries. (Also have a small one on paper…) Contact me if interested!
