Thanks to Famdoc for bringing this to my attention. Tom Lee, a beloved PS 321 first grade teacher (my daughter recently studied bookmaking with him during Super Saturdays), is having an art show at the Cocoa Bar. Famdoc had this to say about the work of his friend, Tom Lee.

My good friend (and popular 321 teacher) Tom Lee has an exhibit of artwork at The Cocoa Bar (Seventh Avenue between 3rd and 4th Streets). An opening reception is slated for Thursday evening at 8 PM with a meet and greet the artist.  Tom uses a variety of media, including pastels, oils and watercolors and achieves a unique finish by applying wax to his works.  His subject matter is mostly landscapes and he is inspired by the natural beauty of coastal Maine, where he has a second home and where he spends summers teaching art at a summer.

Don’t miss the show. And stop by to see the artist on Thursday night.
