I was delighted to be accepted into my first national watercolor exhibition with “Sorghum Maker,” then disappointed when the show was not opened to the public as scheduled. The 41st National Exhibition of the Georgia Watercolor Society (GWS) was slated to take place at Oglethorpe University Museum of Art in Atlanta GA from mid March through April 26, 2020, but the museum is closed indefinitely, due to the coronavirus pandemic. The show was hung but never opened, and the juror selected award winners from the digital images she initially used to select the show entries, rather than seeing them in person. Unfortunate, but understandable.
The good news is that the show has been posted online, so you can view fabulous watercolor paintings easily without leaving home. The extraordinary award winning paintings are displayed first, followed by the rest of the 77 paintings, alphabetically by the artists’ last names. Click this link and enjoy the show.
