Fitzgerald is always stopping the water from breaching the dam with color. So he holds back, reserving with a limit. “Summer Silver Morning has just enough working brushstrokes, patterns that employ emotional charge and describe the landscape,” explains Fitzgerald. “It has color that’s evocative but local. I am building from life.”

Movement – A Two Man Show at The Gallery at Maine Art Hill
“These two talented men capture movement in very different ways,” John Spain, owner of the gallery, says. “Fitzgerald uses acrylic paint on canvas to create the illusion of movement with broad strokes and organic shape. Where Davis bends and shapes metal to form three-dimensional mobiles that not only move with the slightest breeze but also have a feeling of flow that is felt even in stillness.”
Spring Arrivals 2022 – Jeffrey Fitzgerald
I rarely see the work as abstract. Instead, I see expressive illustrations with color and brushstrokes as muse and model. I catapult and dive, dig and luxuriate, and painting continues to cement and flood.

“I live deeply in color, and these paintings are truly about color. Color relationships, both complementary and contrasting.

This year we began with seventy-eight original works from thirteen artists; six pieces each. Then, as most of you know, this is where the process begins. Between the artist, local designer Louise Hurlbutt from Hurlbutt Designs, and you the voters, the show was curated down to three pieces from each artist. These three were carefully “chosen” to be in the show, and we so appreciate all the help we had making these difficult decisions.

Jeffrey Fitzgerald – A Close Look at the Sea
For over five years now we here at Maine Art Hill have represented artist Jeffrey Fitzgerald. A local boy who lives in York, his abstract pieces represent the life and time spent near the water’s edge. When the river meets the ocean, there is a tumultuous ebb and flow of life. Fitzgerald celebrates that turmoil… Read more »

One statement, shared by Kinkead, perfectly conveys the thoughts of all three artists and the gallery as a collective group. “The pieces in this show are moments of stillness and movement… all inspired by patterns and events over this past year.”
