“My intention as an artist is to offer a sense of peace and tranquility through the colors and light of my paintings,” said Clark, who has taught art in the Auburn School Department. “Living in Maine, I am surrounded by the natural beauty of layered mountains, expansive fields, flowing rivers, sparkling ponds and the magnificent, ever-moving ocean. The inspiration for my work is therefore boundless and extraordinary. My landscapes and seascapes express my deep love for nature and her ever-changing atmospheres.”

Her work has been represented in solo exhibits, juried shows, group shows, and arts festivals in central and southern Maine, and is included in corporate and private collections throughout the United States.

Preble is a self-taught photographer who has garnered a number of awards, including two second-place awards from the Maine Sportsman’s Show and several awards from various Maine fairs.

She has shown her work at Gallery 5 in Lewiston. One of her photos was featured in a publication compiled by the International Library of Photography.
