Wes Waugh Teaches Wet Into Wet Watercolor

I wanted to share a watercolor workshop that I enjoyed the other day. Mr. Wes Waugh painted Grandfather Mountain and explained his wet into wet technique  before the Newell Hendershot Watermedia Exhibition opening reception at Sycamore Shoals Historic Site. In less than 3 hours he created a watercolor painting start to finish. His bold color combinations and knowledge of the medium, and subject matter is inspiring.

WVAL Summer Art Show

Just wanted to share a quick announcement. The Watauga Valley Art League is holding its 21st annual art show at the Sycamore Shoals Historical Site from June 28 to July 26, 2015. The People's Choice awards will be announced at 2:45 pm on June 28th during the Artist reception. (This means if you want to vote on your favorite artist or artwork, you must do so on June 28th between 1:00 pm and 2:30 pm.)

I don't understand the reason for not allowing more time for the public to view and vote on the entered pieces, but that is just the way of things.

There will be lots of beautiful works of art from local artists and WVAL members. (There will also be snacks, and refreshments) PLEASE COME BY DURING THE RECEPTION and VOTE!
