Art Galleries near Dresden, ME

“Terrill and Charlie are amazing!! They were very welcoming even though we had children with us and they were super informative! They answered every single question we had, all while creating not one but three pieces! They were also great with the kids and the kids loved it! 10/10 would definitely recommend a visit!”

“We love Alan’s art and couldn’t be happier with the additions we have included in our home decor! We have purchased the calendars dating back to 2021 and look forward to displaying each months capture of a beautiful landscape, the ocean, a lighthouse, lakes, a beach or even just the colorful bouys on display on a coastal dock! We had the opportunity to meet Alan at Yarmouths Clam Fest this year, he was very friendly, inviting and took interest in our son and our passion for his art. We purchased a framed picture of Boothbay Harbor which displayed fishing boats anchored in the harbor. It was simply beautiful and reminded my wife and I of our many trips to the harbor. As a Mainer, each piece of art reminds us of a special moment we shared at the many locations Alan has captured. Alan was even nice enough to break away from a conversation to take a selfie with me!! We can’t wait to visit his Gallery in Gardiner and would highly recommend his art to anyone looking for a staple decor piece!”

“Driving across Maine, I stopped for lunch and found this lovely shop filled with handmade items. I am a professional artist and art educator so I recognize creative and well crafted items when I see them.

The person working behind the counter was friendly and helpful. [She might have been the owner?]. I asked about the town of Gardiner and what its claim to fame was, since I had just stumbled upon it. We had a great chat while I wandered around looking at everything.

Then I spotted it. A sweet, poignant little piece of art that I just had to purchase. See photos. I have always told my advanced art students to, “Show me something I have not seen before.” -And this piece fits the bill.”

“Sylvan Gallery is one of my favorite galleries in WIscasset. Several of the artists have won national awards. The contemporary paintings are watercolors, oils and acrylics and are mostly of New England seascapes, landscapes, and still life. The talent represented here is incredible.”
