Come to Our Costume Party Scholarship Fundraiser!
Indoor Garden Party, Abstract Themes in Watercolor, & Mainely Skies
with
Margaret Dwyer
Margaret Dwyer, an accomplished watercolorist and new resident of Eliot Maine will be teaching 3 two session workshops at Sanctuary Arts this Summer- Indoor Garden Party (SA 10), Abstract Themes in Watercolor (SA 11), and Mainely Skies; The Illusion of Light (SA 12). Her enthusiasm for teaching (more than forty years of experience in painting and teaching) and the beauty and imagination of her colorful personal work is plenty of reason to come study with her. Her watercolors have been included in the “Splash-America’s Best Watercolors” series of fine art books published by North Light, and “How did you Paint That?”, by International Artist books. She has been a featured watercolorist in fine art magazines such as “American Artist”, “Artist Magazine”, “Manhattan Arts”, and as a showcase award winner in “Southwest Art”. She holds an MFA and BFA in visual art. A committed studio artist, she is constantly exploring new themes with traditional and experimental techniques. Margaret says:
“I love being a studio artist, but I also have a real passion for teaching. I learn so much from others and being in a group dynamic. Opening the world of watercolor to people has been and continues to be a purposeful mission for me. Ideas and artistic methods are always in motion in my studio, and it is a joy to share that with others through teaching.”

Introducing 2 New Ceramics Instructors
We welcome Rebecca Emerson, a local artist and educator with a deep-rooted passion for clay. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Ceramics and Sculpture from the University of New Hampshire in 2015. Since then, she has been creating and teaching out of her home studio in Kittery. She will be teaching two Intro to Ceramics classes (SA 23 A & B). Rebecca is thrilled to be sharing her passion for ceramics and hopes to inspire others to unlock their own creativity and discover the endless possibilities that lie within this versatile medium.
Julie Marvin offers Handbuilding with Clay (SA 24). Julie received her BA in Studio Arts at UNH, exploring several mediums there. Working with clay has always skirted along the edges of her creative path, and she has spent time working and learning in community clay studios including Santa Fe Clay, Chases Garage and Portland Pottery. Most recently she studied under Yoko Sekino-Bove at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts. Julie is now turning her attention to handbuilding with clay, and is heavily influenced by her many years working as a professional gardener. She is a resident and studio artist at Sanctuary Arts.
