Raffle Ticket for Robert Beck's Painting "Putting the Mary E on Stands"
"Putting the Mary E on Stands" painting by Robert Beck commemorates the restoration of the Bath-built 1906 schooner at Maine Maritime Museum during the summer of 2017. Original, 12" x 16", oil on panel.

Robert Beck (1950-) is an American painter known for his plein air and studio images of the people, occupations, and events of our time. Beck approaches a wide range of subjects in his work, often painting live under distracting and difficult circumstances. He addresses some larger topics through multiple-painting "essays", in which each image describes a facet of the subject. Beck is also a writer, teacher, curator and lecturer; he writes a monthly column for ICON magazine that parallels his painting, and is the past host of a weekly radio interview show on WDVR-FM. In 2014, he was awarded the Philadelphia Sketch Club Medal for Excellence and Contribution to the Arts. His work was featured in the 2016-2017 Maine Maritime Museum exhibit OVER EAST, an Artist's Journal: Paintings by Robert Beck of the Contemporary Maritime Community.

Only 200 raffle tickets for this painting will be sold.
