About the Instructor | Lynn R Peters grew up in a family of artists and makers, so she’s always been inclined to “putter with art supplies.” Being home during the early days of the pandemic pushed her to paint more regularly, and to dabble with pens and various ink colors. What emerged was a more whimsical style combining doodles and watercolor.

Peters has exhibited her paintings at the Cedarburg Cultural Center, the Art Garage, and the Rahr-West Museum. She painted a series of on-trail murals for the Town of Ledgeview, a project she describes as “not for the faint of heart.”
