Women of Watercolor
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. We paint for about three hours and gather for lunch, and then offer suggestions in a group critique. There is much fellowship, sharing and learning during these painting sessions.
On Tuesdays during the winter, we paint indoors at CMC Dillon and gather for a critique by lunch time.
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, Hamill House in Georgetown, The Pavilion at River Run, Red Buffalo, Colorado Mountain College and Cool River Coffee.
We have been invited to participate in the annual “Meet the Artist” program at the Riverwalk in Breckenridge, "Fall for the Arts" and "Friday Art Walks" in Silverthorne, and "Pioneer Days" at Keystone.
Membership is open to all women who enjoy the medium of watercolor. Contact Membership Coordinator Linda Marr for more information at [email protected] or President Sara Thomas at [email protected].
