Who We Are
Mission Statement:
Women of Watercolor
is a group of Summit County Colorado women who meet regularly to paint in
plein air, and in studio. We encourage each other's artistic growth by
offering instruction, exhibitions, and camaraderie. We support the visual
arts in Summit County.
On Tuesdays during the summer, the artists meet at a different
outdoor location every week. In the winter months we paint indoors. After about three hours of painting we gather for
lunch and then offer suggestions in a group critique. There is much
camaraderie, sharing and learning during these painting sessions.
Women of Watercolor engage a renowned artist and teacher to
demonstrate, teach, and critique during a three-day outdoor painting program
each summer. In addition mini-classes are offered throughout the year.
Members get to exhibit their work at various venues and events in
Summit County. We have exhibited at the Speakeasy
Theatre, the County Commons, Backstage Theatre, and The Pavilion at River
Run.
We have been invited to participate in the annual “Meet the
Artist” program at the Riverwalk in Breckenridge.
Membership is open to all women who enjoy the medium of watercolor. Call
