OGUNQUIT ART MUSEUM, CAMDEN
I went looking for this art museum because of some favorable comments on another blog. The setting overlooking the ocean was as appealing as the artwork.
I am so sorry I failed to get all the names of the pieces or the names of the artists. It was late in the day and I still needed to drive a ways so I rushed through here.
Then later when I looked at the pictures I was sorry I had not planned more time.
The museum was started in 1953 by Henry Strater, an artist and the son of a wealthy snuff manufacturer.

"Hunker" by Tom Butler
This piece was very strange. It was finely drawn in black ink and I had to get a nose length away to see if it was real hair or not. Nope, it was a pen and ink drawing.

The gardens were beautiful as well.
