Maine Ocean Festival 2025 Artist
Each year, we invite a local artist to create a design for our Maine Ocean Festival. This unique artwork is often inspired by coastal communities, the ocean, and aquatic creatures, and is featured on our t-shirts and posters, which are available on-site during the festival. The festival celebrates our oceans and the diverse life that inhabits them, aiming to inspire exploration and conservation in every visitor. We are pleased to announce that Sara Cary will be our artist for the 2025 Maine Ocean Festival.
“Science and nature drive Sara J Cary’s creative process. She enjoys spending time researching subjects and applying the relevant information into creating informative, pleasing, and functional illustrations and photos. Her art is full of accurate details along with intentional compositions, colors, and medium choices. Her preferred mediums are acrylic ink, colored pencil, and photography.
Getting inspiration from the place she lives and creating is important to Sara. She resides in Downeast Maine, where you can find her knee-deep in tide pools and meadows, searching for inspirational specimens for her work.”
