![]() Watercolors and WildflowersSarah Peterson Join local artist Sarah Peterson for this three-day adventure inspired by the exquisite natural surroundings of Toklat. You will experience the wonder and success of wet on wet technique as you discover your own artistic "voice." A close up look at wildflowers and other nature's miracles will inspire your work whether you are a beginner or an experienced artist. The excitement of success with watercolor and the experience of wonder will guide your artistic explorations well beyond this class. Sarah Peterson grew up in Aspen in the days of dirt streets and no movie stars. She went to school in Boulder and came back to Aspen to work as a nurse for a few years. She moved back to Boulder to start her family and delve into her art. Sarah has been a potter for many years and is known for her trout majolicas. However, her true love has always been watercolors, spending summers in Aspen at Anderson Ranch under the tutelage of late Anstis B. Lundy. She exhibited both, her ceramics and watercolors in numerous shows in Boulder, Denver, Aspen, Ketchum, New York, Key West, and an Francisco. Her paintings show a unique use of watercolor, expressing the delicate and ethereal qualities of her subjects in vivid contrast with darkness.
