The Blue Hill Public Library is hosting “Local Colors: Paintings of Regional Scenes,” a collection of artwork by Terre Lefferts. The show runs Nov. 5-28.

Lefferts, a Lamoine resident, is a landscape painter whose show focuses on scenes from the Blue Hill Peninsula and Mount Desert Island. The public is invited to a reception on Friday, Nov. 14 from 4-6 pm.

“There is just so much beauty and content in the ever-changing coast of Maine, with countless different locales and scenes, that no one can say they’ve already seen or experienced it all,” Leffert says in a press release from the library. “The location may be the same, but the scene is always different. The sea, along with the inland beauty of Maine, with so many vistas and horizons, colors and textures, provide not just sights but also feelings. Then there are the working harbors and ships, sailboats or luxury boats, wildlife, and human interactions-- the possibilities are endless.”
