Saving the best for last! Featuring Two Daughters Sea Salt Co. Company owners Ian and Emily began making sea salt in 2019 as Christmas gifts and quickly developed a deep appreciation for early Japanese wood-fired evaporation methods. As the process evolved, Ian was able to leave his VA job to care for the children between salt batches while continuing to refine production techniques. Emily oversees sales at local markets and flavors the salts using herbs from their garden and Vietnamese peppercorns; she is also known for producing exceptional smoked salts. By leaning into their individual strengths, they have created a balanced and sustainable business model. Ask Emily about her flavor profiles at the Rockland Winter Artisan Fair TODAY!

Tom is going to be one of the 35 artisans today at the Winter Artisan Fair. A bit about Tom: Thomas Petzwinkler is a fine art photographer, filmmaker, and sculptor based in Cushing, Maine. Since the 1990s, he has worked as a university professor while traveling and exhibiting his work in venues around the world. His background in art history, sculpture, filmmaking, and documentary photography deeply informs his Maine-based photographs, which can feel both majestic and dynamic while consistently conveying a sense of silence, stillness, and solitude that often contrasts with the subject matter itself.

ARTIST FEATURE: Jamie Spooner is an artist and a videographer. Jamie is me:) I am the co-organizer of the Rockland Winter Artisan Fair and the one who has been filming artisans and posting on this account. Sadly, I ran out of time to do my own video(!) and so in lieu of a video I will share a little about myself below!

My painting style is fun, light, and colorful. I want people to feel peaceful, relaxed, and happy when they see my work. While that may sound contrived and simplistic, it is true. I basically want people to be happy.

I am an illustrator at heart and have been drawing for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a small New England tourist town where I was selling my work on the sidewalk at age 6. At that age, these were drawings of animals. I followed a creative career path in Advertising and founded a Design and Marketing company that I ran for 16 years with focus on web design, branding, video and eventually animation. Today, I am drawing/painting a few animals (birds and dogs) but my subject is mainly Maine landscapes with a focus on the drama of light. I also do commissions. If someone told me 20 years ago that I would be painting puppies and sunsets, I would have said “puppies—yes! Sunsets are cheesy.” But the sunsets and sunrises are amazing in Maine. And somehow, I cannot help it:)

If you are following this event, have a great time tomorrow! Good food! Cash Bar! Great art! Live music! A raffle that benefits dogs, cats, and people! What is more fun than that? The event is at the Rockland Elks Lodge from 2-7 pm. It is FREE admission. There is also an ATM on site for convenience.
