Erika Lee

I landed in Mancos this winter after living a transient, adventure-filled summer and fall throughout the Southwest. I work as an outdoor educator, which allows for freedom to travel and truly immerse myself in the wild landscapes of the Southwest. This is where I draw my inspiration for my work- both watercolor painting and mixed medium art. With a passion for environmental conservation, education, and a love for wild, beautiful places, I work to use my art as a medium to explore the connection between humans and nature, and how to harness this connection to benefit both the environment and humans.
