A Vibrant June — Shopping, Exhibits and Events at The Market at Dover Station!

A vibrant June is happening in the East End of Easton, at the Market at Dover Station! Brimming
with unique opportunities to shop and create; the goods are fresh, activities are fun, and exhibits
are new.

Blackway Boat Models is fully stocked with a variety of elegant handcrafted wooden models of
Chesapeake Bay Workboats by Bruce Blackway from Berlin, Maryland, along with an
assortment of innovative miniature nautical accessories including miniature outboard motors,
bushel baskets, crab crates, nets and traps, oyster baskets and tongs, and more. Bruce has been
active on the Chesapeake Bay his entire life, and has worked its waters where deadrise
workboats hold a special place in his heart. Since he began crafting boat models nine years ago,
Blackway has sold more than 600 to collectors in the Delmarva, the US, and overseas. His boats
can be personalized with a family name on the bow or stern, creating an heirloom to enjoy and
pass on for decades to come.

Easton, Maryland, fine Artist Diane DuBois Mullaly has refreshed her space with vibrant
original plein air and studio palette knife paintings in oil, created in her signature style. Mullaly
seeks to bring joy to her collectors by evoking a sense of place, capturing the light, atmosphere,
energy and soul of her subjects. With her knife, she describes what she sees with layers of paint–
sometimes loading it on in bold strokes, sometimes sgraffitoing by drawing or scratching into the
wet paint, often almost sculpting the paint to tell her story. Her paintings of waterways, skies and
sailboats; animals and birds; and gardens and nature are joyful and sophisticated — speaking of
the beauty found all around us, painted with love and thoughtful abandon. Mullaly also offers a
small selection of unframed works, and beautiful reproductions of her work as fine art greeting
cards.

Sisters-in-law Allie Gannon and Allie Gamble, both from Easton, Maryland, bring us sweet
charm with their boutique Countryside Home — a lovely grouping of antique furniture, vintage
oil paintings, fine china and vases, inspired by country sides across the world from England to
the United States. They love to use the perfect mix of old and new to make homes feel cozy and
romantic with lace, flowers, fine art, and the warmth of beautiful upholstery paired with
charming lamps for the perfect dimmed light.

Eastern Shore photographer Scott Warner displays his phenomenal captures of regional birds and
wildlife as large, limited-edition framed prints. Also known for his graceful images of sailing
vessels in motion, Warner offers prints on wood, metal and canvas.

Doggie Beach Boutique is the creation of Samantha Clearfield from Ventnor, New Jersey,
featuring dog friendly ice cream in 4 flavors (just add water and freeze), plus unique and colorful
toys, leashes, collars, cookies, treats, bubbles and more. “My dream job was to open my own
clothing boutique”, said Samantha. “Fast forward to 2020 when I rescued my dog Nova. After
spending so much time with her during the pandemic I realized I didn't want to spend a day
without her! So I pivoted courses and opened up a dog boutique instead.” Doggie Beach
Boutique is a go-to for dog lovers, and a great place to stock up on special gifts for man’s and
woman’s best friend.

Fine artist Kimberly Nesci from Potomac, Maryland, paints extraordinary encaustic images of
flora and fauna, including flowers, plants and butterflies, using richly textured fused hot wax.
These encaustic paintings have a lovely surface, are archival, and can retain their beauty for
hundreds of years.

Chesapeake Coffee Roasters from Crofton, Maryland, is on a mission to create, roast and
distribute the region's finest specialty grade coffees, then contribute back to the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed. Choose from their freshly stocked inventory of organic, bird friendly and limited-edition selections. All in uniquely named blends with beautiful gift-worthy packaging, imprinted with images of the creatures of the Bay.
