Barbara Ernst Prey, "Pathways," 2020, Watercolor on paper, 29.5 x 42 inches

This year marks the 20th anniversary of Barbara Prey Projects, a gallery and exhibition space in Port Clyde, Maine, housed in what was once an inn frequented by such locals as the artist N.C. Wyeth. Barbara Ernst Prey has painted and exhibited in Maine for more than 40 years, regularly drawing inspiration from its scenic coast.
