Four King Images Selected for "All Animals" Competition
Of a total of five images submitted by Wayne King judges selected four images as winners in the competition.
"I'm pleased that so many of the images I submitted to this competition have been chosen for recognition." said King. Animals, with whom we share the planet have a special place in the hearts of many people. Everyone has their favorites. Some tend toward the domestic others to the denizens of the wild. To me all of them have special meaning and I do my best to try and capture them in a way that recognizes our commonalities."
"It's easy to see the world of animals as a pyramid that humans are at the apex of but in truth we all share this special place called planet earth and the wisdom of humans confers upon us a special responsibility to nurture the relationships that together create the web of life."

"Sacred Trust" Book Signing and Discussion with author former Senator Wayne D. King at Mill Brook Gallery, Concord NH
Artist, author and former State Senator Wayne D. King will be the featured guest at the June 13, 2018 Wednesday’s Wisdom Pot Luck from 6-8 p.m. at Mill Brook Gallery & Sculpture Garden, 236 Hopkinton Road in Concord.
Wayne will be reading from and leading a discussion about his novel "Sacred Trust" described by the author as a thinly disguised critique of the Northern Pass proposal and others like it, cloaked in a rollicking campaign of civil disobedience, environmental patriotism and economic sanity.
"Sacred Trust' is a vicarious, high-voltage campaign to stop the Granite Skyway Power Transmission Project and a fight for an energy future based on sustainable, and renewable energy deployed through micro-grids, smart-grids and a competitive environment that makes energy more - not less - affordable.
In addition to the featured...

In a move likely to raise the hairs on the back of your neck former State Senator Wayne D. King has used the vehicle of his new novel “Sacred Trust” to unveil a long-held secret involving a group of State Senators, arrested while driving North in the Southbound lane of Interstate 93 after a long night of drinking at the famed Highway Hotel in Concord.
“Most of the people in the story are no longer living, after all it did happen in the early 1980s,” said King when asked about this recently at a book signing. “The story was recounted to me by a Senate colleague who was a part of the whole fiasco so I’m confident that it actually happened, though there’s no way to know just how much he embellished the tale.”
In “Sacred Trust” King, who was the 1994 Democratic Gubernatorial nominee, weaves a story with a familiar ring . . . the clash of ordinary people who transform into extraordinary heroes while confronting money and power in an epic battle to...

August is the second month of a two month exhibition of images by Rumney-based artist Wayne King.
The exhibit features some of King’s most popular images including Alton Washday and Wonalancet Mindscape.
