"Then III" (mezzotint print), by Cleo Wilkinson, in the "Footprint International Exhibition 2018,'' at the Center for Contemporary Printmaking, Norwalk, Conn.,, through Aug. 26.  The show showcases the current trends in printmaking within one square foot configuration.

A view of a couple of the more than two dozen islands off Norwalk, which is a mostly affluent New York City suburb on Long Island Sound. The  quaint village of Rowayton may be the most interesting section. It's very pretty and has long attracted as residents many writers and painters. But it's  now overdeveloped along the shore. That piled up the damage in Hurricane Sandy, in 2012, and the construction of waterfront McMansions has not ceased since then.
