About the Artist

Tom Leach, retired Harbormaster and Natural Resources Director of Harwich on Cape Cod, shares his lifetime of views on the water. For 40 years, he managed the village's active harbors called Wychmere, Allen, Saquatucket, Round Cove and Herring River. He later worked as a sailing captain for Chatham Bars Inn for four seasons, captained the party fishing vessels Yankee II and Cap'N Kid and ran Freedom Offshore taking passengers on whale watching trips out of Harwich Port. He became Waterfront Director at Pleasant Bay Community Boating in 2019.

Leach has been sketching and painting since before graduating Tufts University. In college, he made time to take art courses in perspective, anatomy, and oil painting. He finds the shape and design of boats and changing boat scenes intriguing. He is a boat designer and in 1984, he built the first Cape Cod Frosty, a dinghy which now numbers in the thousands with an active racing class. His time on the water has allowed him to appreciate, study and paint this subject. A most recent project was illustrating a teen book CALLIE ON THE CAPE by Carolyn Foster Parker.

Tom also enjoys surfing, golf, racing a Flying Scot, or just knocking around Pleasant Bay and Wychmere on his catboat TOM CAT with his wife Jackie. They spend part of the year on Balboa Island where Tom finds even more great art subjects. He also enjoys painting your house, your boat or wedding venue.
