onthly meetings include professional critiques, professional artist’s demonstrations, and handson learning experiences. These exciting events are done by professional artists from within the membership or by professional artists brought in just for the evening.
While many SWS members have won local awards in Spokane, Coeur d’Alene, and Newport, several
of the members have a broader claim to fame. Achieving signature status in a state society is a
meaningful accomplishment.
The following members have achieved these honors: Peggy Conrad in the Idaho Watercolor Society,
Chris Twardowski in the Idaho Watercolor Society and the Montana Watercolor Society, Jeanne
Wallace in the Idaho Watercolor Society, and Bobbie Weiber in the Idaho Watercolor Society and the
Montana Watercolor Society. Also
of interest is Vicki West, who was featured by Marie Kazalia, a New York
artist, for Artist Marketing Resources.
Spokane Watercolor Society exists
for those who want to grow in their
art, meet other artists, and learn from
the best. They continue to promote
excellence and learning in 2016, just
as they did in 1952, but with a different twist on how that growth is accomplished.
