CREATING A WATERCOLOR JOURNAL
The simple pleasure of painting, sketching, and recording a week on the coast (for all levels).
- NONA ESTRIN — JUNE 27–July 3
With a blank journal and a small box of watercolors, pen and pencil, students in this unique course will become comfortable catching impressions simply and spontaneously, with a minimum of equipment or fuss. You will spend lots of time exploring the waters, nearby islands, shores, and mossy headland forests of Eggemoggin Reach. Methods of looking closely, identifying, sketching, and painting observations will be informally included in the production of each day’s journal pages. This week promises to be a wonderful foray into color and our maritime environment, and shouldn’t be passed up by anyone interested in sketching and painting outdoors.
Tuition: $700
This has been one of the most enjoyable times in memory. When you put together the level of creative minds and skilled hands in this beautiful Maine setting, it’s magical. I feel I have new friends in Brooklin and around the world thanks to WoodenBoat School. I’ll be back but it won’t be soon enough.
