Yarmouth Clam Festival Original Paintings FOR SALE!

Three Original 24 x 24 Paintings

Yarmouth Clam Festival Original Paintings FOR SALE! Sally Caldwell Fisher, one of our country’s premier painters of New England coastal life and a resident of coastal Maine, interprets its charms and challenges with sensitivity and humor.

Over the past three years, Sally has created paintings for the Yarmouth Clam Festival posters. Yarmouth Arts is pleased to be assisting Sally in the sale of the three original 24 x 24” paintings.

The original paintings will be on display all three days of this year’s Clam Festival under a tent on the North Yarmouth Academy lawn near the festival information booth where Sally will be signing the 2008 posters. This year’s painting illuminates the Clam Festival Food Circle at dusk and can be seen on the front cover of the 2008 festival program. The 2006 painting depicts the Clam Festival Parade marching down Main Street, and the 2007 painting sparkles with the fun of fireworks and the Carnival.

The cost of each painting is $6000; the trio of paintings can be purchased for $15,000.

Sally’s work is displayed in many galleries including the Mystic Maritime Gallery, Newbury Fine Art in Boston, Bayview Gallery, and Gleason Fine Art Galleries. For a complete list of galleries and for more info on the artist, please visit www.sallycaldwellfisher.com.

Individuals or businesses interested in purchasing the paintings and all inquiries should be made directly to Linda Horstmann of Yarmouth Arts at 846-7967.
