Sue, you will get all kinds of great information on this forum. And you will find many Mainers are very friendly. I have lived in many different states and Maine reminded me a lot of what it was to live in the central area of North Carolina where the folks were quite welcoming. I live in the Sebago Lake area and there are homes in your price range and I know a few artists who live just off the waterfront on the lake so they don't pay for owning right on the waterfront. They do get the right of ways to be able to goout on the lake or to go to a beach. YOu have so many choices. And the prices are different but like you will see here, there are many art lovers here in the state and they have many galleries where your husband can share his works with the public. We also have some restaraunts where they will allow the locals to have their work shown and be for sale. There are plenty of opportunities.
My dad was an artist who loved living up here and was able to always find inspiration.
