WILTON — Phil Poirier will be at the Wilton Free Public Library Thursday, Oct. 6, with a display of his photography and drawings. The artist’s reception will begin at 6 p.m., with a talk by Poirier at 7 p.m. Light refreshments will be served.

Poirier is an artist, photographer, singer/songwriter and amateur naturalist. He says of himself, “I am an observational naturalist, a lifelong Mainer, working in the realist tradition. Photography has now supplanted painting for me. Working with digital imagery, I push the images, pulling out work that feels more painterly than anything I ever did with a brush.”

His work will remain on display at the library through Dec. 6.
