The artistic creations of Crystal McLain will be on exhibit at the Pemaquid Watershed Association (PWA) office gallery in Damariscotta from April 21 through May 30. The theme of her exhibit is “Lucid Nature by The Fortuitous Canvas.” The public is invited to a wine-and-cheese opening reception for the Bristol artist on Friday, April 25 from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. at PWA.

McLain's approach is limitless when it comes to expressing her creativity. She will use whatever medium inspires her in the moment — pencil, watercolors, acrylics, tempera batiks, sculpture or collage. She believes being thoughtful about one's process in almost anything can result in something artistic.

She named her business The Fortuitous Canvas, which is a reflection of her awe when a creation comes out well.

The exhibit may be viewed weekdays from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. by visiting PWA above Salt Bay Café at 88 Main Street in Damariscotta.

For more information, call 207-563-2196 or visit www.pemaquidwatershed.org. McLain is donating 35 percent of the proceeds from sales to support PWA’s mission of conserving the natural resources of the Pemaquid peninsula.
