Participants will do landscapes and seascapes in this week-long course. Sky, water, rocks, trees; the coast of Maine. If you have never painted in watercolors, we will start at the beginning. If you have painted before, you may pick up some new tips and tricks as well. Be inspired by the beauty of coastal Maine and enjoy the creative synergy that comes from a group of painters working together!

What Our Students Are Saying
I loved the fact that we were all at WoodenBoat School for a specific course, but there was an informal, relaxed, very friendly atmosphere that is the foundation upon which the school functioned. So while each of us leave with a sense of accomplishment, you take with you the knowledge that your life has been enriched through this experience. Thank you so much.

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.
