WHOLE MAINE LOBSTER - See the Live Lobster at MJs Raw Bar and Grille in New Bern, North Carolina. You pick your own lobster and we will steam it for you. Served with drawn butter. 

As a scrumptious visual treat, visit downtown 216 Middle Street at MJ's Raw Bar & Grill to view amazing conceptual paintings by Michaelé Rose Watson. 

The walls are adorned with rich colors and textures representing sea creature and environments, shells, octopus, jellyfish on thick-depthed box structures. An oversized canvas hovers near the entrance with deep reds and burnt oranges showing space as shadowed layers and folded illusion.

Watson says about her artwork, "I continue to work in mixed media but now from a conceptual point of view.  My ideas and forms are influenced by how we as humans interact with Nature.  All the choices we make affect everything and everyone around us.  My work helps to remind us of the choices and responsibilities we must consider."

Michaelé Rose Watson will be again hosting Bohemian Night at her studio 413B behind the Bank of the Arts on Friday, July 13 from 5pm to 9pm.
