In my role as Awards Judge for the National provided the image. Sentiment Watercolor Society’s 95th International was not applauded (or, for that Exhibition, I found my usual juror job matter, disdained) because it description profoundly altered.

These universes emerge overlapping, but not necessarily cohesive, in the hands of those who know what they reasons.

I am grateful to the National Watercolor What did I seek to reward? I’d daresay the Society for involving me so closely with such same things the show’s initial judges did: a gratifying artwork, and I’m pleased to share coherent relationship between admirable the Society’s pride, and the pride of the technique and provocative subject matter. participants, in this vibrant selection.

04 JURY OF SELECTION 2015: Soon Warren David Poxon Judi Betts, CHAIRPERSON

PREVIOUS JURIES OF SELECTION As a team, we brought to the table our lives of studying and painting, traveling, exploring in

2008 Miles G. Batt, Sr., Chairperson museums, and listening to music and all of nature’s sounds and colors. With our own emotions we Carrie Burns Brown responded to each artist’s personal symbolic language. I was fascinated with the large array of Cathy Woo diverse methods and thoughts represented. I would have been pleased to see a larger exhibit in 2009 Jerry Stitt, Chairperson Carolyn Lord the end. I am excited, of course, with our selections. The viewers may question our decisions, but Carl Purcell we each voted for the creative images and color chords that ignited our hearts. 2010 Marc E. Mehaffey, Chairperson Carla O’Connor Penny Hill and her committee worked hard to make our responsibilities systematic. Special John Salchak thanks to all the volunteers who worked so diligently for the NWS. 2011 Ted Nuttall, Chairperson Marry Ann Beckwith I am honored to have been selected to work with the other jurors. We freely discussed our Judy Morris thoughts and wishes. I hope you will be surprised, entertained and enlightened as you view the 2012 Elaine Daily-Birnbaum, Chairperson entries. I feel we chose a thought-provoking group of paintings that people will not only look at Fran Larsen Warren Taylor but also look into. 2013 Gerald Brommer, Chairperson - Judi Betts Kathleen Conover Dean Mitchell 2014 Katherine Chang Liu, Chairperson It has been a real privilege and honour to be invited to participate in the 2015 NWS selection Carole Barnes jury. The volume of entries and standard of work has been as high as I expected. All paintings have John Salminen been scrutinised in detail and many discussed and debated at length by the Jury of Selection. It’s not been easy, but it has been a pleasure. To pass ‘judgment’ on my fellow artist’s work is a strange and public ordeal in a way, knowing that there will be many disappointed painters who did not make the show this time round. For those who missed out, I offer some encouragement for the next event. We have all felt the pain of not making it into the final show, it does hurt I know, but such is the wondrous journey we share as watercolour painters. Please remember that we all take many steps on a long unending road, and the road has many twists and turns. Congratulations to this year’s selected painters. All entrants will enhance and enrich the reputation of the NWS which now has a world-wide following. Please enjoy the show.

- David Poxon It was exciting and challenging to participate as one of the 2015 NWS Jury of Selection. I congratulate 05 all of the artists whose paintings were selected. Also, I want to share my feelings with those who are disappointed by not being selected. As you all know, not being selected this time doesn’t mean that your painting is not good enough. After the experience of jurying a great volume of entries, I felt better and more lighthearted about the paintings I didn’t get into shows in the past. If I could have had a second turn to select paintings, I likely would have chosen different ones without thinking about it twice. The split second of choosing a painting connects with my emotional and spiritual journey at that very moment. Also, seeing the unique perspective of each artist, with an emphasis on the surprising aspects of otherwise ordinary subject matter, is always invigorating and inspirational. I appreciate how and why one paints rather than what one paints. My goal is to approach each painting with a fresh mind, without any preconceived prejudice, to minimize the bias and subjectivity of human nature on the selection process. I appreciate anyone who dares to put one’s heart on paper to share with others as I try to do with every painting. It was an honor and privilege, as one of the jurors, to be part of this wonderful exhibition, celebrating the versatile paintings in watercolor created by colleagues who share my passion. - Soon Y.
