Center’s point in Bowdoinham Maine is a shady walk by the river on a woodsy path, that opens up onto Merrymeeting bay, where six rivers and the ocean converge. Views of Brick Island, Topsham, Dresden and all sorts of wildlife. There is a 1.5 mile hike in with a few ups and downs. It is a leafy riverside walk followed by a large open view.

Option bilingue Français / Anglais toujours possible- Je parle courrament le Francais, et je suis heureuse d’acceuillir des Francophones dans le cours.

Center’s Point a Bowdoinham est un lieu unique: une randonee en foret qui donne sur une peninsule rocheuse. Projetée sur Merrymeeting Bay, un estuaire ou l’ocean retrouve six rivières différentes, on peut voire les îles ainsi que des côtes

Join Manon Whittlesey in exploring how interact with wild spaces, and capture an essence of it on paper. Each Watercolor in the Wild session explores fundamental plein air approaches: what to look for when choosing a spot, how to frame a dynamic image, principles of color mixing , line work and more.

Consider making it a weekend in town, as the next day is the Farm/Art walk, where Artists and Farmers offer demonstrations and visits of their work.

In the 2023 Watercolor in the Wild sessions, we will be engaging with Maine's outdoor wilderness and practicing plein air fundamentals in monthly Saturday sessions. These can be taken as a series for progressive learning over the spring and summer, or as a single session .

All levels of artistry are welcome. In a warm and supportive learning environment, beginners will learn fundamentals, more practiced artists will receive feedback around their working process. Places we will be working in include Popham Beach, Reid state park, Woodward Point Brunswick, and Centers' point Bowdoinham.

Class will run from 10 a.m - 3 p.m the following Saturday:
