 I've been dabbling in oils and taking photos for awhile, self-taught like many artists/photographers. Then, for past couple of years, I took lessons in watercolors, which is quite different from oil painting.
In 2008 and 2009 I made submissions to the St. Louis Watercolor Society's annual juried show and was accepted each year. To be a 'Signature Member' you have to qualify in two different years with a different judge, and maintain active membership. I should be a Signature Member, but let my membership lapse by mistake. Am waiting for another chance in Spring 2010.
After my watercolors were chosen, there was a reception at the opening of the show, and the paintings hung in Creative Art Gallery, St. Louis, Missouri each time for over a month.
I've also had paintings hanging for at least a month each time, at places like the John F. Kennedy Community Center in Florissant, Missouri, and at the David C. Pratt Cancer Center (100,000 sq. ft.) of St. John's Mercy Medical Center which is St. Louis County's largest hospital.
Hope you enjoy viewing my work! |
