There were no swamp-like conditions at this year's Art in the Swamp.

If fact, it was hot and dry as a couple hundred people attended the 13th annual art show put on throughout Saturday and Sunday by Rik Watson and Claire Louise Stephen in Webster's Corners .

"It has been really awesome," said Watson. "The sun was smiling on us all weekend."

This year's art was on display by Bill Fowle, Mark Richfield, Kimberley Hayek, Cindi Hoflin, Sandy Moulton, Jackie Murton, Nancy Patullo, Scott Schell, and the hosts Stephen and Watson.

Fowle, a local photographer for more than 30 years, has travelled the world and captured many photos in his realism-style work.
