Join us on Monday, July 14th, 2025 (from 10 AM – 3 PM) for this exciting off-site Plein Air Painting workshop led by Ogunquit Art Association artist-member Russel Whitten.

Suggested donation $75

Located at Robert Laurent’s farm studio in Cape Neddick (Deidre O’Flaherty will meet participants at Barn Gallery and give the directions), this class will provide training in the direct observation of form and its surrounding elements.

The emphasis will be on plein air drawing and controlling watercolor media while re-creating the appearance of nature with use of surrounding forms.

Demonstrating with watercolor, Russel will show the development of forms as derived from the study of perspective, composition, value and color.

Preregistration suggested. Call Barn Gallery: 207.646.8400.

Russel Whitten is a local artist/teacher, studied at The Art Students League of New York, Heartwood College of Art, and is a juried artist-member of The Ogunquit Art Association, Maine’s Original Artists’ Group.
