    Meet October Artist of the Month, Matthew Edgerly

    I started becoming interested in Sea Glass at a very young age. While roaming the inlets of Penobscot Bay with my family, I was struck by the natural beauty and striking originality of each unique piece of sea glass…so many colors, so many shapes! I remember telling my mother “this one looks like a slice of pizza!” or “this one looks like a sailboat!” It wasn’t until my teen years that I discovered that I could take an amazing piece of sea glass and enhance its natural be

    Since opening for our 2018 Season, we have welcomed new artisans, created some videos we want to share with you and want to send you our May promo. Many people have been asking us to make videos of our Coop so we decided to do a walk through showcasing each of our artisans. We had to break them up into 7 segments and wanted to feature all of Artisans as Our Artist of the Month. Here is the first segment. To view all of them please visit our Artist of the Month Page, click her

    Meet October Artist of the Month Doreen Dickson

    Meet Lupine Artisan Doreen Dickson All my life I've loved to create from what's around me. I lived in rural areas and many did not have easy access to craft stores...nor did I even think I needed them. I would bundle up my two girls, grab a basket and say...let go to the craft store (meaning...let see what we can find outside to make something beautiful with). Fall flowers, ready dried on the stem, became wreaths or centerpieces-Stones and birch bark curls might grace a shelf

    Meet July Artist of the Month Jim Dickson

    Meet Lupine Artisan Jim Dickson The Forge and Saw is an enterprise I started in 2014 as a creative outlet for a couple of hobbies I became interested in later in my life. I have been in the construction industry for 35 years in one capacity or another and hand been exposed to many, many different trades. A couple of years ago I bought the contents of an old blacksmith shop that was no longer in use in California. I brought all that equipment home and set it up in my garage

    Meet May Artist of the Month Julie Patterson

    Meet Lupine Artisan Julie Patterson My younger sister and I spent two weeks every summer at my oldest sisters home in New Hampshire from the time I can remember. Every visit she would have craft projects for us to do. The ones I remember the most were making clothes and counted cross stitch. Although I never make clothes and very rarely cross stitch anymore, it was a great influence on me and planted the seed for crafting. I have tried my hand at many kinds of crafts. My big

    Meet Lupine Artisan Patty Young What started as a hobby making soap became a passion, a love of soapmaking, thus turning into my business in 2010 called Common Scents Soap. I specialize in making goat milk soap. Goat milk is naturally high in vitamin, minerals, and proteins that nourish the skin. By using fresh wholesome natural ingredients such as fresh goat milk, organic vegetable oils such as olive, coconut and palm oils, I am avoiding harsh chemicals and fillers so often

    Meet Artisan Dianne Horton Our August Artisan of the Month

    Meet the Artisan Dianne Horton Margaret asked me how I got started painting. I had an early and late start. I was painting early in my childhood, watching an uncle and great aunt as they participated in art shows and won awards. I am a 4th generation artist. I was very excited about attending the art school I had applied to for college. But that was not to be as my parents told me they would not allow me to draw naked people! So… I attended University of Maine in Machias and
