Uta Peikert

I have loved nature and art for as long as I can remember. I was born into a creative and artistic family. I used to spend many hours watching my father work on his art projects and photography. Although I consider myself to be mostly a self-taught artist, I have learned from other people, books and random art classes throughout my life. I love being outside and when I was young I helped my mother with her gardening and later on took classes in landscaping. We used to go camping every summer, which led me to a deep appreciation of the natural world around us. Thus, most of my art is about nature, landscapes and close ups.
