Natural sand collected from beaches around the world gives Jan Peterson’s work both its color and its texture. In “Blessing Altar, The Four Colors of Human Beings,” he uses sand painting to create an image tied closely to the earth, shoreline, and the quiet rhythms found in nature. His work often draws from the beauty and serenity of the ocean and its inhabitants, giving each piece a physical connection to the places that inspired it.
