Enjoy the Brookside Gardens Exhibit - in person and online

Judge Glenn Kessler had this to say about our show:
"I was again honored but tremendously challenged to jury this Potomac Valley Watercolorists
show. There is truly not a weak painting on display on these Brookside Gardens walls. This
outstanding collection of artists continue to set the standard for outstanding and diverse water-
media in the DC area. As I toured the exhibit, I was thrilled to see how each artist chose to
explore the medium and natural scene through their own unique style—loose or tight, a
vignette or a masterpiece, intimate or boldly assertive. All should feel proud at their
accomplishment in creating such quality work."

I do watercolors. But, I don’t create the soft, watery, picturesque type of art.  I do not aspire to paint cut crystal, even in all its refracted glory or the fuzz on the peach that captures a viewer’s attention. Given these admissions, I am surprised at the passion that watercolor ignites in me as its reputation for delicacy challenges so.
