(Painting by Tom Curry) (Brooklin, ME) Once again, WoodenBoat School will be presenting a series of marine-related art courses this coming summer at its ocean side campus in Brooklin, Maine. Each summer, well known artists join the school’s faculty to teach plein-air classes in watercolor, oil, pastel, and/or acrylics. Class sizes are small enabling instructors to provide plenty of personal attention to each student. All experience levels are welcome. This season, WoodenBoat School is excited to offer: July 10 – 15 Island Landscape in Color with Tom Curry August 7 – 12 Seascape/Landscape in Watercolor with Philip Steel September 4 – 9 Coastal Maine in Watercolor with Amy Hosa Tom Curry, a graduate of Rhode Island School of Design, is a plein air painter living in Brooklin, Maine.
