As partners in their art business, Square House Studio, Stephen and Maire are daily creatives who serve as a muse for each other. When they are not making art, taking photos, or writing kids’ books, you may spot them driving around the Shore in their VW Beetle convertible heading to the farmer’s market or to Oxford for the sunset picnic… give ‘em a wave!
