The forest of Phippsburg is the canvas for these carvings

MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • August 14, 2022

New York artist Kevin Sudeith has been creating petroglyphs, or rock carvings, on Phippsburg Land Trust properties for the past three years. He works on the carvings from late spring into fall, sleeping in a nearby barn and lugging tools miles into the woods, including ladders, diamond saws, dental instruments and a respirator/mask. He’s created more than 30 individual images so far, including those mentioned above, at three sites at Ridgewell Preserve and Cooley Center Pond Preserve.
