The Jacksonville Watercolor Society

The Jacksonville Watercolor Society brings nationally recognized artists to Jacksonville for two workshops, held in the spring and fall. These hands-on workshops enable members and the public to study and paint with guest artists, learning their techniques and philosophy on the art of watercolor. Workshops are available to members and non-members on a space-available basis. We are honored to have wonderful artists for our upcoming workshops. For more info call Joan Dorrill at (904) 471-3439.

He also had a 10 page write up in International Artist. He uses a technique similar to batique in water color. His work is exceptional. He recently taped a video program for cable TV, demonstrating his batik looking style of painting. His works have been published in numerous books and periodicals.

George James - is a delightful human being who hails from California, judged the FWS Show in 2005, and is a Dolphin member of AWS, and professor of Art Emeritus at California State University Fullerton. He rejected traditional methods and began working on yupo (in place of paper) and discovered a unique mode of expression. An engaging speaker with a strong sens of composition, abstract yet realistic.
