WFWS49 Reminder

By All IWS Info, WFWS
Just a reminder that the deadline for WFWS49 is coming soon! You may enter and edit your submissions until 11:59 pm on November 27, 2023.

The Arizona Watercolor Association is hosting the Western Federation of Watercolor Societies 49th Annual Exhibition in Phoenix, Arizona from March 1, 2024 to April 28, 2024. The show juror is Stan Miller. (Check out his free tutorials on YouTube.) The show venue is FOUND:RE in Phoenix. FOUND:RE Phoenix is an art boutique hotel sitting next to Roosevelt Row (one of America’s top 10 city arts districts), which means this show will likely be seen by a large number of people interested in art. This show is open to watermedia artists who are members of one of the WFWS Component Societies, including IWS.

Ready to enter? The ArtCall page for submitting entries for WFWS49 is open. Click on the link below to enter your paintings for consideration. The WFWS49 page also includes a listing of critical dates, the most recent prospectus, and a brief tutorial on how to use ArtCall.

WFWS49 New Delegate

 

Shelly Johnson, a Distinguished Merit and longstanding member of IWS, has graciously volunteered to be the WFWS Delegate taking over for Dennis Hayzlett who has performed that duty so well for so many years. Dennis will remain on as the alternate delegate this year.

Q&A and Reminder

 

Do you have questions about WFWS or the prospectus? Do you have a painting you want to enter and want an opinion? Do you have a painting in progress for WFWS and want to share? I will be at the IWS Analysis and Discussion in Eagle on November 6, 2023, to answer any questions about WFWS and share one of my entries.

WFWS48 Clarification

By Events, Exhibits, WFWS
Good Evening,
Once again, congratulations to the IWS artists selected for this year’s regional exhibition. In my previous announcement I noted 7 IWS artists had been selected. Looking at the list it is quite obvious that 8 of our fellow artists were chosen. So please congratulate all 8 of our accomplished members.
My only excuse is that as an English major, higher mathematical operations such as counting, are outside my skill set. My apologies.
