I am delighted and honoured to say that I have been elected as an Associate Member of the Royal Watercolour Society (RWS)!
The Royal Watercolour Society (RWS) was founded in 1804 and is the oldest and most prestigious watercolour society in the world. Past Members include Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, E.R. Hughes, William Hunt, Henry Moore and John Singer Sargent. The RWS is an artist-led society made up of an elected Membership who are amongst the finest practitioners in contemporary water-based painting.
The home of the RWS is the Bankside Gallery which is right next to Tate Modern, which it shares with the Royal Society of Painter Printmakers (RE).
The RWS hold two shows a year at Bankside in the Spring and Autumn and join their friends and colleagues at the RE for two other shows in the Summer and Winter. So you will be able to see my watercolours exhibited in four shows a year.
I shall keep you all posted on dates of the next exhibitions. And perhaps you will make a day of it see the RWS and then pop in for a cuppa and a wonder around Tate Modern.
I am very excited to have been elected and to be able to show alongside such wonderful artists!
