(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
Capturing our local islands in pastels, oils, and acrylics.

August 7 – 12 Seascape/Landscape in Watercolor with Philip Steel
The sea, the sky, and boats, for beginners on up.

September 4 – 9 Coastal Maine in Watercolor with Amy Hosa
Maritime details near and far.

Tom Curry, a graduate of Rhode Island School of Design, is a plein air painter living in Brooklin, Maine. His pastels and oil paintings are represented in private collections around the country, and in a number of galleries and museums. He has taught workshops at The American School in London; the Round Top Center for the Arts in Damariscotta, Maine; Wellesley College in Wellesley, Massachusetts, and at WoodenBoat School.
