Artwork by Morbideus W. Goodell
The YCCC Library will exhibit the artwork of Wells artist Morbideus W. Goodell during the month of October. “Can Art be both beautiful and disturbing at the same time?”, the artist questions. Few are willing to stare into the abyss, so Morbideus has brought dark images back from the depths for the fun and amusement of all. Creating what he calls “The Fine Art of Death,” Morbideus’ muse is making images that he hopes others will appreciate in spite of themselves.
Former staff illustrator for Apex Horror & Science Fiction Magazine, Morbideus’ artwork has also appeared in several books, including the Stoker Award-winning “CRYPTOPEDIA: A Dictionary of the Weird, Strange, and Downright Bizarre” by Author Jonathan Maberry. His work was also featured on an episode of “Pimp my Ride” (titled “Pimpeando”) for MTv3. Morbideus (along with photographer-wife Dee) designs and sells T-shirts and prints through their company Postmortem Productions.
This exhibit is free and open to the public during regular Library hours, Monday – Thursday, 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. and Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, call Amber Tatnall, Library Director, 207-646-9282.

‘A’ is for Architecture is a photographic portfolio of architectural details of buildings in Dane County, Wisconsin. It will be on display in the library through October 29. The photographs were taken by Jeff Dean, an architectural historian, photographer, and the Historic Preservation Officer of Wisconsin. Dean created this photographic project in 1989. His portfolio traveled throughout Dan county’s schools to heighten children’s awareness of their rich architectural environment and to stimulate classroom discussion relating to the design and preservation of historic buildings in their communities.

A new art exhibit has just arrived at the YCCC Library and will be on display through September 29. These nine photographs by Daniel Farber provide a glimpse of colonial American history as carved in stone: angels, hour glasses, and even the grim reaper. Stop by to take a look today! Jason Jolda’s artwork will also continue to be displayed during this time.
The following information was provided by the University of Maine Museum of Art about the artist and this collection:
In the winter of 1958, Daniel Farber began working with the gravestones of Colonial America. He realized the value of the tombstones to the research of art historians, archaeologists, genealogists, and scholars of American history as examples of early American sculpture. However, the stone reliefs were eroding due to neglect, vandalism, weather damage, and eventually would be destroyed and lost forever. For those reasons, Farber realized the need to photographically record their images. To accomplish this, Farber developed a technique to control the angle of sunlight, creating a slight shadow across the carving, by using a large mirror fitted on a tripod. This technique allowed him to capture a three-dimensional image of each gravestone at virtually any time of the day, anywhere in the graveyard. Farber’s images capture the carvings in great detail, and reveal the symbols commonly associated with death and the passage of time hundreds of years ago. The most common folk art images from that era symbolizing death – death-heads, hour glasses, angels, flowers and sickles – are still recognized today. Farber has photographed 7500 different stones, as well as coordinated and participated in efforts to ensure the preservation of several of these grave markers.

The Library at York County Community College will exhibit the artwork of Jason Jolda during the months of August and September. Mr. Jolda has been an instructor at YCCC since 2002 where he teaches Introduction to Drawing and Advanced Life Drawing. He is completing his Masters in Fine Art with the Savannah College of Art and Design. This exhibit will be his capstone experience in that degree.
Jolda’s style, he says, lies somewhere between science fiction and fantasy and embraces a sense of darkness and mystery. The works in this exhibit include illustrations and sculpture and span from the late 1990’s to 2008. When not teaching, Jolda is a freelance illustrator who creates conceptual illustrations and storyboards for local advertising agencies and private businesses. He has also worked with a Florida based-company that develops and designs theme park attractions world wide.
The Library will host an Opening Reception on Wednesday, August 6 at 4:30. Refreshments will be served. The exhibit is free and open to the public during regular Library hours, Monday – Thursday, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Friday, 9 a.m. to noon. For more information, call Amber Tatnall, Library Director, 207-646-9282

YCCC Library and the Seashore Trolley Museum of Kennebunkport are getting busy this summer with a digitization project of the Museum’s postcard collection.
Close-up image at the Maine Memory Network
Several community service volunteers from local high schools are hard at work scanning and cataloging the Streetcar Postcards Collection which contains over 1000 postcards from the 1900’s to the present, most of them featuring trolley cars from around the nation.
Katie Sullivan scanning cards
Postcards with images from the state of Maine are being uploaded into the Maine Memory Network, an online museum of digital images. These flimsy bits of cardboard can be a surprisingly valuable primary source to students and researchers because they capture not only a graphic image in time, but, very often, interesting correspondence on the flip side that gives a sense of life more than half a century ago.
Maddy Bunker and Cheyenne Bastille examining and describing cards
Our volunteers spend time examining each card, using a magnifying glass if necessary, to identify elements in the pictures, including buildings, shops, and streets. They then gather additional information on any features that may be interesting to researchers. This information is included in the descriptive cataloging for each card. Our goal for the summer is to get the entire collection digitized, cataloged, protected with archival sleeves, and uploaded online for the world to enjoy.

The latest art display in the library features paintings of fish and coastal habitats by local artist James (”Jim”) Dochtermann. The artwork will be on display from April 22 through the end of May. Dochtermann recently spent two years living in northern Japan and now resides in Alfred, Maine. He is currently a researcher at the Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve in southern Maine. His experience includes investigating fish communities and habitats from the Gulf of Maine estuaries and their associated watersheds to offshore marine areas. The artwork reflects his direct exposure, acquired through intense field research, to these habitats and the fish that live there. Many of these works have been provided for documents and publication for Gulf of Maine-related research, education and stewardship. James paints with oil, gouache and water color.
The fish paintings are part of a series that will be used to illustrate an upcoming field guide Fish of Southern Maine and Seacoast New Hampshire to be released by the Wells Reserve and Laudholm Trust. The originals are for sale and range in price from $60 to $90. Please speak to one of the librarians if you are interested in purchasing a painting. For more information about the artist and his work, please visit http://www.jamesdochtermann.com/
