Philip Frey (born 1967)
Frey is known for his vibrant paintings of the Maine landscape. His painterly approach and interpretation of color and light, give way to joyful paintings. Motifs include seascapes, and Maine’s working waterfront. Frey’s sense of color stems from an interest in Fauvism, a major avant-garde European art movement in the twentieth century.
