The Saint Louis Watercolor Society’s Holiday Party at CJ Muggs in Webster Groves, held on December 4th, was so festive. The exchange of artist trading cards was reinstated this year and encouraged mingling. The gift exchange is always popular too and a nice way to pass art related things on to each other. CJ Muggs once again provided a great venue and delicious food. We so appreciate CJ Muggs inviting STLWS members to bring their paintings to decorate the walls of their banquet room over the holiday season.

Here are some candid photos from the evening.

We would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very happy holiday season.

Here are some photos the urban sketchers shared with us from their outing at the Missouri History Museum on November 20th. Fortunately the weather was nice enough that a few of the sketchers went outside to sketch, while others stayed inside. They all felt there was a lot to choose from at this venue. They will definitely go back!

Saint Louis Watercolor Society’s Signature Members’ Exhibition

at Norton’s Fine Art & Framing

Saturday, Nov 16th, 6:30 – 8:30 pm

The Saint Louis Watercolor Society announces its Signature Members Exhibition, featuring original watercolor paintings by artists who have achieved Signature Status with the Saint Louis Watercolor Society. Exhibition and reception are free and open to the public. All paintings will be for sale and encompass a wide variety of subjects, styles and prices.

Signature status is granted to STLWS members who have been accepted into two juried exhibits sponsored by the STLWS within ten years while maintaining continuous membership. These juried exhibits are judged by nationally and internationally known watercolor artists who are brought to St. Louis by the STLWS to give workshops while the juried exhibits are held. STLWS’s Signature Status artists are some of the area’s best talent in watercolor. At this year’s Signature Member Exhibition, artists will be offering additional original watercolor artwork, matted and ready to be framed.
