Product Description
Although he spends most of the year teaching and painting in Connecticut, internationally recognized artist Normand Chartier's heart lies in Maine, where he rents a cottage on Southport Island every summer and spends hours capturing the essence of the coast in his unique style. Here, the reader will find old farmhouses that grace tidal coves as no modern structure could; lobster boats whose curves and ruggedness match those of the shoreline along which they fish; and spruce-graced, granite shorelines found nowhere else in America.

I grew up in Maine, but live outside the state. When I picked up My Maine at the bookstore, I was transported back to my childhood. Mr. Chartier's paintings have such detail of the 'everyday things' that make Maine so unique -- that I felt I was right back there again. For anyone who wants a genuine book of Maine memories (or memories to come), with subtle, gentle, yet powerful illustrations -- this is the one to get.
