Sean Beavers
Sean Beavers offers a 4 day intensive En Plein Air Landscape Painting Workshop (SA1). Each session is split into 2 parts- a discussion of materials and techniques along with demonstrations at the chosen seacoast area location, and then painting onsite with Sean's generous critiques and demos as your guide. I take this every chance I can get and love the on site demonstrations and the camaraderie of other art students.

Plein Air in the Cove (SA 2)
Perkins Cove has been an important center for modern art, art history and the visual arts in general. Paint in and around the Cove while also learning about some of the painters who worked in the Cove over the last 130 years or so. Special focus will be on the women painters who excelled in creating their work while visiting or living in and around Perkins Cove. There will be a trip to the Ogunquit Museum of Art to see their show featuring women painters of the Cove.
