Testimonial:
“I have taken four workshops on Monhegan from Frank. As a matter of fact, he gave me my very first painting instruction. He has contributed so much to my growth as a painter. Frank teaches to all levels and could not be more supportive of his students. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of painting locations on the Island. I’ll be back this June hoping that Frank will push me to become a better plein air painter. ” -George Baker

Testimonials:
“… As an art teacher for many years I was awestruck by the tricks of the trade I acquired by spending time observing this professional artist and his techniques to enhance our watercolor painting abilities. You could never find a more sincere and talented artist who truly loves his work… I smile every single time I think on my week learning on Monhegan how to grow as an artist. I highly recommend this class as it is money and time well spent. (Not to mention the friends you make along the way! )” -K.E.
“… You will not regret staying on such an inspirational island and you’ll leave with so many new friends. Paul is warm, funny, modest and puts everyone at ease the first day. His devotion to his students and his love of painting shine through. We had beginners to advanced and he made sure everyone’s needs were met. Sign up – you won’t regret it!” -B.B.
“I attended Paul’s watercolor workshop last June. I can’t say enough how amazing the workshop was and the beautiful island. Paul put together a great week with a mixture of instruction and painting time. I stayed in Zimmies cottage which was perfect for the workshop… Paul was a great instructor and really took the time to show us the fundamentals of watercolor. The location for our practice was just perfect. I also met a great group of people and will cherish our time together forever!! I highly recommend this workshop for any watercolor artists from beginners to advanced students. “ -M.R.

Testimonials:
“Kevin quickly created a sense of community between his workshop participants…. Kevin’s instruction has a way of meeting you where you’re at- while each of us has a different style and technical ability, Kevin’s spot on critiques and encouraging suggestions allowed each of us to go home feeling better equipped to continue our artistic journey.” -Debbie Underberg Mueller
“I thoroughly enjoyed Kevin’s June 2020 Workshop. His intimate knowledge of Monhegan was a real highlight of the week. He suggested painting vistas that many of us had never considered, even though we had painted there a number of times. The consensus of fellow Workshop students was that the final critique of our week’s worth of Plein air painting exceeded our expectations, in that his suggestions were truly helpful for us all.” -George Baker
“I am grateful my first Plein air class, oil medium, was taken with painter/instructor Kevin Beers….Kevin has an amazing talent for painting, I would say he’s very relatable, sincere and worked at each student’s level. I enjoyed the week with other highly talented students and Kevin and would definitely take another class instructed by Kevin Beers.” -Dawn Witham
