Samuel S.Thorpe is a well known and highly collected local artist. He kept an active studio in both Townsend, MA
and Kennybunkport, ME for many years and his work has found its way into many private and corporate collections
throughout the country. Sam Thorpe is known for his classic New England scenes which include saw mills, fishing
shacks, maple sugar houses, town commons, and seasonal landscapes. This is an exceptional, totally original, and
unusually large example of his finest work.
Thorpe was known as an atmospheric painter. He used the elements of light, shadow, color and composition to
create a certain mood or feeling to his paintings. As a painter who worked primarily in oils, the texture and vibrant
colors of this medium easily led to compositions of this type. Sam Thorpe passed away in March of 2005.
