Wild about Watercolor 2022
An open-to-all, combined online and in-the-gallery exhibit featuring the medium of watercolor.
September 23 - December 03
This exhibit explores the variety and diversity of the wonderful medium of watercolor.
This year's show includes 54 entries from 21 artists. On October 7 we introduced an online voting system for favored selections in 6 categories.
Voting closed with a meet the artists party on October 21. 130 people voted and likely about 60 people came to the party that evening.
The show is a sharing but it is also a contest, and most pieces are for sale. The prizes (gift certificates at Stella's Italian Kitchen and Market, Cedar Circle Farm, Lyme Home and Hardware, and at Matt Brown Fine Art) went to works that garnered the most votes in six categories:
-Overall favorite
-Most original
-Most flamboyant
-Most communicative
-Most atmospheric
-Most technically accomplished
The exhibit is a chance to enjoy variety and diversity using the wonderful medium of watercolor. This year 21 artists submitted a total of 55 pieces. October 7 we posted a concurrent online exhibit of the show and introduced an online voting system for favored selections in 6 categories. October 21 we held a party, closed the voting, announced our winners, and awarded prizes.
On the ballot was a selection of 21 pieces competing in each of 6 categories. 130 people voted; winners and runner-ups are shown below. Thanks so much for participating!
