This watercolor painting 'Pier Group' has been juried into the NJ Watercolor Society's Annual Exhibition, held at the Middletown Arts' Center. I thoroughly enjoyed painting the punchy dark rectangle shapes in this rickety fishing pier in Avon, NC. The fishermen's silhouettes are directed by the vertical and diagonal lines of their poles.

This view is local to where is live in West Creek. Our Dock Road is three miles long ending at the bay. It's rather quiet in winter, and a few hearty folks live out there. Brrr!

I am so grateful to many art organizations that have gone online during this past year...It has been a positive outlet to create and enter the juried shows. Not every entry gets selected, but this one did! 'The Great Debate' was selected for the Marge Chavoosian Memorial Award in the Garden State Watercolor Society Members Exhibition. The Show will be posted on their YouTube channel March 17th. https://www.gswcs.org/members-exhibition.html
