BWS Signature Member Award Winners


First Place: For Peat's Sake by Luis Pérez

"The piece is a stunning example of watercolor at its best. The artist displays a superior understanding of the medium. The detail is amazing, which perfectly complements the minimal composition."


Second Place: Winter Warmth by Stacy Lund Levy

“The piece is beautifully composed, with delicate brushwork and subtle detail. The shadows in the foreground draw you into a very inviting winter scene."


Third Place: Flourish by Alexis D. Limpiado

“The piece is an outstanding example of control of the medium. It's a dizzying explosion of colors and texture. The attention to detail is mind-blowing. The overall effect is playful and whimsical."


Honorable Mention: Lemon Wedges by Frank Spino

"The piece has striking color and dynamic composition. My mouth waters just looking at it. The control of the medium is outstanding."


Honorable Mention: Mulling Life by Shirley A. Jenkins

"The piece is a beautiful example of the art of portraiture. The face and hands capture a moment in time of contemplation. The composition is unique in that the figure is leaning to the right, allowing for the dark background to add to the mystery of the piece."


Honorable Mention: Boulanger by Trish Crowe

"The piece is an example of outstanding composition and color placement. The patchwork of buildings, windows, boats, birds, and people creates a charming and dynamic visual. Amazing control of the medium."
