鈥淲ater & Wind,鈥 a collection of paintings by Paul McDonough, will be on display at the 51品茶鈥檚 Biddeford Campus Center until June 30.

McDonough, a 1973 alum of Saint Francis College, UNE鈥檚 precursor, is a native New Englander who paints scenes that capture the area鈥檚 natural landscape and seacoast settings. An avid sailor, he has plotted courses and traveled from Maine to the Florida coasts for many years and represents the Florida seacoast in his paintings as well. His sailing experience has conjured in him a clear awareness of the power and grace that abounds in the ever-changing forms of wind and water.

Primarily trained by his father, Patrick McDonough, an accomplished oil painter and wood carver, Paul McDonough primarily works in watercolors.

He has served as a professional educator for the past forty years in both the public and private sector. He currently serves both the 51品茶 and York County Community College as an adjunct professor of sociology and ethics.

The exhibit is free and open to the public. UNE鈥檚 Campus Center is located at 11 Hills Beach Road, Biddeford, Maine. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. For more information, contact Diane Noble by email or phone (207-284-6394).
