Excellent news received from Louisiana Watercolor Society: my watercolor "Out of the Blue" (or "Drive on...") has been selected to be exhibited in the 54th annual International Exhibition. Many thanks to the juror Kathleen Giles! Congratulations to all the selected artists.

RI Exhibition in the Mall Galleries.
A journey that started back in 2000, when I was first accepted with two watercolors: "Since Time Immemorial" and "Minute by Minute". (Both with DANIEL SMITH: Artists' Materials colors, some use of Iridescence Copper and Bronze, if I remember well...). These two paintings were presented in the Artist Magazine (UK, 2000) and in the International Artist Magazine (2001)
Some years later, I was elected member of the RI in 2006.
A beautiful journey, many great friends (some are not with us now, like Sandra Walker and Andy Wood), many amazing moments to remember from my short trips to London, from our exhibitions...
Many thanks to Aimee Birnbaum for sending me a photo of the painting I am exhibiting this year and for all her help! Also thanks Konstantin Sterkhov for your photo!
Let the show go on... :)
