Tonight was the opening of our 2018 Big Splash at Norton’s Fine Art and Framing gallery, 2025 S Big Bend Blvd, St. Louis, MO 63117. There was quite a turn out and the show is stunning. Robin Hirsch-Steinhoff, Artistic Director, Art Saint Louis, was our juror this year and selected 13 paintings for awards. The People’s Choice Award will be determined at the close of the show when the ballots are counted. Congratulations go out to all the award winners. We also want to thank all the STLWS volunteers and members who made this show possible, along with the staff at Norton’s Fine Art and Framing.
The show runs through October 27th so please go back with your friends and family to enjoy the artwork by our accomplished group of artists.

Very nice open space at Norton’s to show off all the beautiful and intriguing watercolor paintings.
Refreshments were good , art pieces nicely displayed and it was a warm inviting environment.
Thanks to Norton’s for hosting the watercolor show and to the volunteers who made it a delightful interesting opening.
