About the Event: Join us for an evening at Books on Third as we celebrate the second printing of an Artful History of Naples and Collier County. About the Book: Created by Paul Arsenault, Eileen Arsenault, and Donna Murphy, this richly illustrated 240-page fine art book features the work of acclaimed artist Paul Arsenault paired with vintage postcards, historic photographs, and lively narratives. This is the second Edition! About the Author: A native of Montreal, Paul Arsenault grew up in Hingham, MA, where his love for the sea and travel emerged. Following his graduation from the Art Institute of Boston in 1973, he began a six-month stint as a deckhand on a research vessel. He signed off in Florida in 1974, and began his professional painting career. With Naples as his base, he has embarked on painting trips to the Caribbean, Central and South America, Asia, the South Pacific, Indonesia, Australia, Hawaii, Europe, and the Mid-East. ​Paul’s early exposure to and knowledge of working ports and exotic harbors, combined with his talent for zeroing in immediately on the essence of a place, have made him a popular choice for commissions requiring extensive yet efficient travel. Paintings from these trips hang in public places and private and corporate collections around the world.
