Claire Perry Art

 

 Welcome to Maine Fish Art.  

 

 Along the rockbound coast of Maine are many wonderful "FISH" just waiting to come to life.  From HolidayBeach, to Smuggler's Cove, to Eggamoggin Reach and beyond...your very own FISH awaits you.

Whether you perfer the natural rustic look, or the brightly colored advant guarde...each has its very own personality and character. 

Most are suitable for outside hanging.  The larger ones look stunning over a cottage doorway, porch, or "hanging out" on your barn or garage.  Outside "FISH" are treated with several coats of shellac to protect them from the elements, and weather very well...keeping their colors nicely with  an occasional re-spraying.  My personal cottage "FISH" has been hanging outside  for years and still looks as good as the day it was made.

Please contact me for further information and up-to-date creations;  residing at the Lincoln Stree Center for the Arts in Rockland Maine.   

         ***It is always a good idea to check first about the availability of any piece you wish to buy***
