105 water media artists from New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey submitted their work to Garden State Watercolor Society’s 47th annual juried show. Visitors will be treated to an exhibit that explores the use of watercolor from crisp, traditional works to non-traditional paintings created using innovative techniques. The subject matter of the paintings spans the globe. Walking through the exhibit galleries is like traveling with artists and seeing what inspires them.
Artwork for the exhibition and awards was selected by juror Joel Popadics. His watercolors have been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in galleries and museums across the United States, including the National Academy of Art. He is First Vice-President of the American Watercolor Society and he has been featured many times in American Artist, Watercolor Artist and The Artist’s Magazines. He leads watercolor workshops in the US and Europe during the summer. “I love the look and essence of watercolor. When I work with watercolor, I am reminded how unpredictable life is and to always expect the unexpected.”
