Founded in 1900 to offset the then common exhibition prejudice against watercolor, the Philadelphia Water Color Society is holding its 119th International Exhibition of Works on Paper through October, 11, 2019, at the Community Arts Center in Wallingford, Pennsylvania. Juried by Joseph Zbukvic (juror of selection) and Liz Haywood-Sullivan (juror of awards), the show includes watercolor, pastel, charcoal, graphite, acrylic, gouache, colored pencil, and hand-pulled prints.

  1. It’s so exciting to know personally 4 of the winners shown above! 🙂 I have always admired their unique painting styles. Even before they announced the awards at the Reception, you could tell that these paintings were going to get some of the top prizes. Sensational pieces!

  2. Have enjoyed all of the posts I’ve seen and look forward to opening it up to see what you have to offer. It’s always informative. Thankyou so much.
