I'm about to head down to Rockland, Maine, to teach a workshop for Coastal Maine Art Workshops. Although I've visited Rockland many times, I've never painted there, so I'm excited to paint this part of the Maine coast. Even more exciting is the possibility of a day trip to Monhegan Island. Monhegan is legendary among landscape painters because so many well-known artists, including Andrew Wyeth, Rockwell Kent and Edward Hopper, have painted it over the last hundred years. If you're a last-minute-type person, I do have space left in this workshop. Click here for details.
After the workshop, I'll be stopping by Castine to judge paintings at the Castine Plein Air Festival. I've participated as one of the artists the last few years, so it'll be a different experience to see the festival from the other end as a judge. I'll also be able to reconnect with some painting friends, but I won't, of course, let that influence my judgement. (There will also be a second judge, Maine artist Jerry Rose.)
I just finished up a workshop in Lubec, Maine, this week. I've included a few of my demonstration paintings in this post.
