The Hills Are Alive 14 x 21 Watercolor on ArchesWhen I moved to California, I was completely surprised by the velvety greens of winter.
This ridge is about six miles from my house , near the entrance to Morgan Territory. It is a place I walk often, with horse farms, lamas and goats. This ridge and the vegetation have such interesting shapes and colors , it seemed alive to me on many levels.
I am thrilled to have it juried into the American Watercolor Society 143rd Exhibition. I was fortunate enough to exhibit in the 142nd as well, after years trying, it feels good to reach a lifetime goal. Because I have been accepted into two AWS Exhibtions, I can now apply for Signature Status.
Very nice Robin! Congratulations on the entry acceptance.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely gorgeous, Robin! I think you used a word that is perfect for the richness of this piece: velvet. I really love your style. The intensity of the colors are amazing.
ReplyDeleteRobin, this is fabulous news. I will be cheering you on and hope that you get Signature membership. You deserve it.
