Recently at Harvest Gold, Rebecca Klementovich sent in some gorgeous new paintings! One of the first abstract artists to show at Harvest Gold, Klementovich seeks to introduce a new color palette and style of painting to New England that can challenge the hold that traditional schools have on the region. Her bright colors and the motion that can be seen through her strong brush strokes seek to represent the natural rhythm and vibrancy that can be seen in the mountains and trees all around us. 

 By painting with loud, vivid colors, along with painting and showing in outdoor locations that many people feel more comfortable in than a traditional gallery space, Klementovich seeks to capture the attention of the public and encourage other women to pursue their passions.

The first of these new paintings is "Visions of Kezar Lake" a beautiful landscape painting that shows the view of Kezar Lake in Lovell!

The second of the new paintings is known as "Moon, Plains and You", a beautiful showcase of the winter season. Leaves are on the ground, but green is beginning to peak through, with the moonlight shining above.

The final painting in this newest batch is known as "Let's Work Among the Leaves", a very vibrant and colorful painting that shows the skill Rebecca showcases in her painting. Come see these paintings and more at the gallery!

With winter coming to an end and spring on the horizon, rather than snow, rain seems to be pouring from the Maine skies this time of year! In light of the increased downpours, we would like to show some seasonal spring paintings!

"Afternoon Rain" by Kristen Dill shows the beauty of the sky after it rains, when the sunlight peaks through the clouds again.

"Pine Tree on Water (Kancamagus Spring)" by Gwen Nagel shows the view of the water near the shore. Not relying on the color green as much, but nonetheless captivates the feeling of spring.

"Water Iris" by Mary Ellen Serina shows a beautiful iris, a very prominent symbol for spring. It's a simple showcase of the flower but conveys all the emotion springtime brings.

Lastly, we have "Chickens in Springtime" by Sandy Crowell, which depicts chickens in a springtime field. This piece in particular reminds us of times to look forward to, with vast green fields filled with animals. Come see more works at Harvest Gold Gallery!

Today's project at Harvest Gold was stringing beads to create some beautiful new necklaces! Amethyst and Aquamarine were the primary gemstones being used today, Amethyst being February's birthstone and Aquamarine being March's. In certain cultures, Amethyst means healing, calmness, and wisdom. Aquamarine, on the other hand, symbolize tranquility, serenity, and calmness.

Stringing pearls is a tedious but fun and rewarding task! If you put your mind to it, you can make quite a lot of beautiful necklaces! These necklaces will soon be put onto the website, so keep an eye open for them!

This year is Lynda and Bill's 25th year of opening Harvest Gold Gallery! 35 years ago, Lynda and Bill opened Harvest Gold Jewelry, but it never became a gallery until 10 years later, showcasing handmade jewelry as well as featured local Maine artists! they found the perfect location nestled in Center Lovell, and have since been appraised for the beautiful view inside and out! 

"Hard to say which is better: the gold jewelry and other fine craftwork inside the gallery or the views outside over Kezar Lake to the mountains." - Yankee Magazine

With February ending, the season of winter is beginning to wrap up. Warm days are more common, severe snowfall happens less, and soon, the snow will begin to recede. Thus, we implore you to get some skiing in this season! There's not much time left, and the experience of going down the mountains of Maine is an absolute must! 

Night skiing on mountains such as Shawnee Peak is an experience unlike any other!

Calling all ring lovers! Today, we're going to showcase some of our designs that are well loved!

Tree of Life is one of our most praised designs! 

"Tree of Life: An ancient symbol of mankind's existence on Earth~growing toward an understanding of peace, balance, and unity in life with hope and love for all."

Our Intertwined design is another one of our best sellers!

"A twist, a braid, intertwined gold- the perfect symbol to represent your union, your love, and your friendship."

Our stackable rings are another one of our most appreciated styles, most likely due to the fact that with them, it's easy to stack more than 1 ring on a finger!

For today's Artist Spotlight, we're going over Diane Scott. Diane Scott is a local Maine painter who specializes in beautiful oil paintings depicting, primarily, scenes in nature.

"Emerald Pool"

This painting is a great example of Diane Scott's use of color and texture to showcase how the light reflects. If you look closely enough, even with the broad strokes, you can see the waterfall's reflection on the water, showing the line of motion.

"Glitter (Upper Kimball Pond)"

This is another painting that shows Diane Scott's expertise with lighting. This one in particular showcases how light reflects through leaves and trees during Autumn. 

"One Guard in the Gap" 

This is one of Diane Scott's more structured paintings, the top of the tree is painted with beautiful detail, and the mountains rising in the background gives off a sense of height that is hard to put into words.

Artist Quote: 

"My main focus as I mature as an artist has become to find my authentic voice, to embrace it, to protect and defend it, to nurture it, to hold it close to my heart, as I would an imperfect child!"
