The Art of Sail: The Paintings of Artist Patrick O'Brien

The Art of Sail: The Paintings of Artist Patrick O'Brien

Award-winning artist and Baltimore resident Patrick O’Brien will discuss his striking paintings that depict the classic age of sail. He will show many of his paintings, and discuss his extensive nautical and historical research that ensures his paintings are definitively accurate renditions of battles at sea, historic waterfronts, and other aspects of maritime history. Light refreshments follow the lecture. The cost is $10 for MdHS members and $15 for non-members. Doors open at 5:30 pm. The lecture begins at 6 pm. Mr. O’Brien has been an artist and illustrator since the 1980s. About 15 years ago he turned his talents toward depicting maritime history and quickly became one of the leading artists in the field. The National Maritime Historical Society awarded O’Brien with their “Distinguished Service Award” in recognition of his body of work.
