We got to know Christopher Cart's work when one of his paintings of dancers was for sale at the awesom Harbor Square Gallery in Rockland, Maine. Often of dancers, his paintings are powerful portraits. We let our favorite slip past to our regret. So when automobile repairs drove us to Augusta we stopped at the Kennebec Capital Justice Center where the entrance to an auditorium is framed by impressive murals of scenes from Maine's history.
My favorite is the ice harvesters - because I know from my Peace Corps years that some of that Penobscot River ice made it to the `ais haus' on the Bombay waterfront - now a bus terminal of the same name.
