LEWISTON — The works of a painter and a photographer-painter are now being featured at the Central Maine Medical Center Woman’s Hospital Association Rotating Art Gallery.

Paintings by Vyonne Spaar and photographs and paintings by Kathy Cain are on display at CMMC.

“The interplay of form, color, textures, light and movement of ocean, sky and forest is the stimulus for my seascapes and landscapes,” said  Auburn resident Spaar. “Being able to bright it all together in my paintings is my passion.”

Spaar has studied at the Maine College of Art in Portland and The Baum School of Art in Allentown, Pa.

Kathy Cain of Oxford holds degrees in art education and nursing. She has worked as a medical illustrator and her work has been published in medical journals and textbooks.

Her interest in photography arose from her work as a painter and illustrator and she pursued education in photography, developing a special interest in the use of filters to “create an emotional context to her subjects.” In 2006 she won a blue ribbon at the Maine Sportsman’s Show for landscape photography.

Work by Spaar and Cain will be on display through July 28.
