Mikayla Ploof was selling prints of wildlife photos she’s taken at the ArtWalk on Thursday. This one, of a puffin, is her favorite. It was taken on Hog Island in Maine, where Ploof camped for a week during the 50th anniversary of the Audubon Seabird Institute’s “Project Puffin,” an effort to reintroduce puffins to Maine. At one point, the bird was almost completely gone from Maine’s coast. She said the effort had taken decades of work, including putting out decoy puffins. “Puffins won’t land on an island if there’s no other puffins there,” Ploof said. “Obviously, it was super successful because there are puffins all over there.” (Enterprise photo — Aaron Marbone)
Katie Roemer was selling stickers and jewelry at the ArtWalk in August 2023. Roemer started painting in college and started making stickers more than a year ago as an affordable, accessible and approachable medium for her art. “Anybody can buy a sticker,” she said. She’s seen people put them on their phones, laptops, water bottles and coolers. “It’s something that you can put on things that you take with you everywhere,” Roemer said. “It just brings a little bit of personal joy to the belongings you bring with you.” (Enterprise photo — Aaron Marbone)
