MOUNT DESERT — Jane McCloskey will present her newly published book about her father called “Art and Illustration of Robert McCloskey” at the Northeast Harbor Library on Wednesday, July 27, at 5:30 p.m.
Primarily known for his immensely popular children’s books, such as “Make Way for Ducklings” and “Blueberries for Sal,” Robert McCloskey was first and foremost an artist and produced a large body of paintings and other artworks in addition to his sketches and illustrations for kids’ books.
In this book, Jane McCloskey looks at the range of his work from both chronological and geographic perspectives. Stopping short of critical analysis, she presented the paintings in context to McCloskey’s life and discussed his attitudes about art and his interest in design and symmetry.
Jane McCloskey lives on Deer Isle.
This talk is free and open to the public.

Wonderful job right here. I seriously enjoyed what you had to say. Keep going because you undoubtedly bring a new voice to this subject. Not many people would say what youve said and still make it interesting. Properly, at least Im interested. Cant wait to see far more of this from you.
