SOUTHWEST HARBOR Much of Gary Hoyle’s artistic career has been working with creating realistic reflections of life, but his show, “Aspects of Nature,” allows the viewer’s imagination to travel wherever it may.
When the Wendell Gilley Museum opens for the season on May 14, Hoyle’s show will be on display until the second week of June. Also in the museum will be a few examples of Hoyle’s realism work.
For nearly three decades, Hoyle worked as an artist for the Maine State Museum, creating displays and bringing the stories of the state’s past to life.
“It was probably the best job in state government,” said Hoyle, who has lived on Swan’s Island year–round for the last 14 years. “It really does force you to be creative and work in a lot of different mediums. You’re constantly challenged.”
