Course Description:

Stonington is an old fishing village, situated 58 miles from Bar Harbor on the southern tip of the picturesque coastline of Deer Isle, Maine.   This quaint, active harbor is surrounded with vintage architectural structures and an array of fishing and lobster boats.  Windjammers sail through the area on a regular basis and use the harbor for anchoring overnight.  This five-day workshop is preceded with a get-acquainted gathering Sunday afternoon and the workshop concludes at the end of the day on Friday.  Morning instruction begins each day at 9:00 a.m. and concludes at 4:00 p.m.  The morning instruction will include insightful lectures, discussions, exercises and demonstrations.  Students will paint on location at a variety of designated painting sites during the course of the week.  Following class, students will have the option of continuing their painting pursuits independently or enjoy exploring different types of recreational activities such as golf, island excursions, boat trips, kayaking, hiking, farmer’s market, etc.   Informative critique sessions will be conducted at the town hall on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings in addition to the last day of instruction, Friday morning (spouses are always welcome).  Students will also have the option of participating in a miniature painting exchange, Thursday evening, with fellow participants, including Fred.  Details regarding this painting exchange will be further outlined upon registration.
