Step out under the brilliance of the Wolf Moon for a serene winter night hike. Together, we’ll listen intently for the calls of Great Horned or Barred Owls, apex predators who are often vocal this time of year as their nesting season approaches. The crisp January air typically offers stunning clarity for viewing the winter constellation jewels: look up for the mighty hunter Orion, the sparkling star cluster Pleiades (the Seven Sisters), and the brilliant star Sirius, the brightest in our night sky.

SCAN Presents Katie Kindilien Demonstrating a still life from oil

The Society of Creative Arts of Newtown (SCAN) will present Katie Kindilien demonstrating a still life from oil on Wednesday January 14th
at 1:30 pm at The Newtown Municipal Center, 3 Primrose Street, Newtown. The demonstration is open to the public and admission is free.

KATIE KINDILIEN
I grew up in Norwalk CT and currently reside in New Haven. I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from Tyler School of Art, Temple University in Philadelphia. A year spent studying art in Rome inspired a lifelong desire to travel, study and paint wherever and whenever I can. I taught art in New Haven public schools for 25 years and continue to teach private lessons today. Along the way I’ve learned painting techniques from many wonderful artists, including Stephanie Birdsall, Julian Merrow-Smith, Kathy Anderson, Kathie Odom and Paul Foxton.
I have been an Artist in Residence at the Art Association of Nantucket. My paintings have been exhibited in galleries and art associations throughout New England, including Manhattanville College, The Art Association of Nantucket, Rowayton Art Center, the Essex Art Association and the Carriage Barn in New Canaan, to name a few. I had a oner person show at The DaSilva Gallery in New Haven in 2024.

STATEMENT
My work is inspired by the everyday moments of beauty that surround us. Whether I’m painting a still life in my studio, or a landscape outdoors, I hope to capture a sense of light, color and space, and I try to infuse the work with energy, feeling and authenticity. The process of putting paint to canvas and creating something that’s never been made before continues to excite me and bring me joy. I hope my paintings bring joy and light to those who look at them.&nbsp;

Home. Radon. Mold. Solar. Water. Septic Inspections

Maxim Home Inspections

Hi, I’m Justin Birtwell — owner and sole inspector at Maxim Home Inspections. I grew up in Derby helping my dad manage commercial properties, then worked as a civil engineer designing subdivisions and surveying properties. This experience gave me a deep understanding of structural loads, drainage, soil issues, and how homes really work — knowledge most inspectors lack. Later, I renovated and managed my own investment properties: ripping out rotted floors at 2 a.m., fixing foundations, finishing basements, and learning every costly shortcut firsthand. Those experiences now save my clients thousands. Credentials: CT-licensed, InterNACHI; CAHI certified, FAA drone pilot, FLIR thermographer, and one of the few CT inspectors certified to fully evaluate residential solar PV systems (performance, safety, value). You get drone roof inspections, infrared scans for hidden leaks, sewer scopes, and clear, detailed reports delivered in 24 hrs (often same day). Agents say my reports lead to faster, stronger negotiations. I answer my own phone, work evenings/weekends, and promise to find what others miss and explain it plainly. Let’s make your next home a great investment — not an expensive lesson. Ready to go full Maxim? – Justin Birtwell Maxim Home Inspections
