Island icon Ray Ellis has created a collection of small watercolor sketches and studies. Ray Ellis is a nationally recognized, classic vineyard painter. His works grace both private and public collections the world over. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Vineyard history.

Carol Maguire's soft and luminous still lives are a wonderful compliment to any decor. Carol's oil paintings are full of energy, color and life. She uses bold strokes and a confident pallet technique. Inspired by a love for color, china, textiles and gardening, her work focuses on objects that surround her daily life - family treasures, gifts from friends and garage sale finds are all in combination with nature's glorious fruits and flowers.

Painter Rob Franco showcases his iconographic boat paintings. By using a recognizable form, Franco uses the boat as a vessel to deliver color and contrast. The calmness of dawn and dusk, the fury and excitement of an incoming storm, the glistening of sunlight, the lines and textures of the boats and the billowing of sails are what propels Rob Franco to paint.
