They are a lovely symbol of our commitment to each other in this next phase of our life together.”
“Great place to stop in on First Friday Art Walk. They do it up right with music and wine, cheese,and munchies. Very festive. This shop and gallery has been a fixture on Congress Street for a very long time. Keep up the good work.”

154 Middle St, Portland“Strolling Old Port amidst Sunday crowds, drizzled on, I ducked into the Art Gallery. Quiet yet inviting, it housed Maine artists in well lit rooms. I turned the corner and BAM...face to face with one of my, if not my favorite Maine born painter, Eric Hopkins. A wall sized oil...I have followed him since the 90's...truly a museum treasure. Somewhat confused, I asked the museum manager, Emma, how a Hopkins is right here in front of me. Hopkins uses this gallery. She shared her Hopkins stories, listened to mine, then showed me his water colors. A charming, well informed young lady, she absolutely made my week! I highly suggest you take the time to visit this little gem, and ask for Emma! Btw, I heard a family planning their next gallery visit on the street, and I pointed them to my new favorite.”
“Every time I visit Portland, I could no more miss popping into Roux & Cyr than missing going to the Portland Art Museum. I would so much love to buy everything in this gallery! I'm a professional nature landscape photographer, however, and I don't have enough work in my home for my own work. So although I haven't yet invested in any artwork from Roux & Cyr, I've never felt the owner, Susan, has ever rushed me or ignored me. She's very attentive -- and a great artist in her own right. I couldn't think of someone to better represent the art community than she. My only regret there is never taking an art class from Susan. She told she once had a student who drove up from Boston -- but that would have been a four hour-plus RT drive for me. Now that I live outside of Richmond, Virginia, I don't feel the guilt I once had for not enrolling in a current art class.”
“Wonderful spot to spend part of an October afternoon on Peaks Island. We're also very happy with our purchase, which was packed with care and made it home unscathed and ready to bring back memories of our trip to Portland.”
