ART PHOTOGRAPHY SAGA VERSE VIDEO
by Marcus Parsons
SPRING NEWTON OPEN STUDIOS
April 6 & 7, 11am to 5pm
The 22nd annual Spring Newton Open Studios weekend will take place April 6 & 7 from 11am to 5pm. It will feature exhibits by more than 150 artists in 45 locations around Newton.
I’ll be exhibiting in my usual location at Newton City Hall, near the elevator at the west (War Memorial) end of the ground floor. I’ll be showing several dozen new works that I’ve created in the past few months. (There’s a preview at this site’s 2019 art and photography pages.) Come see, if you can.
22 other artists will also be exhibiting at City Hall. FYI, there’s a list of all Spring Open Studio artists, their genres, locations, and examples of their work, as well as a downloadable guide/map, at Welcome to Newton Open Studios. (My listing: Newton Open Studios Artist Page.)

SAGA VERSE VIDEO
RECOMMENDATION: The Squeezeshot Saga, where this project originated, begins here. It’s a book-length fiction that pretends to be a nonfiction, about tiny (mosquito-sized) drones coming into everyone’s lives and broadcasting whatever they see and hear. (Privacy, anyone?) The saga includes 100+ original images. More description here.

EXHIBITS ELSEWHERE
- For 3 years, I’ve been fortunate to have a photograph chosen for the annual Maine Photography Show in Boothbay Harbor. This year it’s The Driver, of a pedicab driver in Havana. (See Havana photos.) This year’s show will take place at the BRAF (Boothbay Regional Art Foundation) Gallery from 11am to 5pm every Thursday through Sunday, from Sunday, April 7 to Friday, May 3.
- Several of my paintings, and a few words, appear in the Winter 2019 issue of the Maine Arts Journal.
Best to you,
