Leola-based artist Jason Lichty can work in most artistic mediums. “I can paint, draw, sculpt, and create formal portraits, cartoons, abstracts,” said Lichty. But it is talking about the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF) that lights up Lichty’s eyes. Referring to a painting called “Aquatic Harmony” he created for Tempo, a Boston seafood restaurant, Lichty explained, “The energy that went into that was to try to promote the CBF. I have been an advocate for save the bay (efforts) since I was in high school.”
