Thursday, June 24, 7:00-8:00 PM. Zoom lecture, sponsored by the Massachusetts Cultural Council
Like many New Englanders, I long for the summer months when mindlessly strolling along the ocean shore, intent on finding treasures of sea glass, clam shells, and other primordial objects demands my full attention.
Seascape painting, in our long held tradition, seeks to capture this longing.
Take for example, the very large canvas Precious Jewels by the Sea by Amy Sherald, who famously painted Michelle Obama’s official portrait.
During this lecture, I will share insights into Ms. Sherald’s painting along with other interpretations of the sea, including my own painting on exhibition in the U.S. Embassy in Belgrade.
Registration is limited to 50 people, so please register soon.
Sponsored by the Massachusetts Cultural Council and the Topsfield Cultural Council.
On view at the PEM, American Waters exhibit.
