Mollie Jones AWS, NWS - USA


Jones is a nationally recognized award-winning watercolorist and workshop teacher who works exclusively in transparent watercolor.

A self-taught artist, she enjoys a passion for painting crystal, glass, silver, and anything reflective in nature.

She lives and works in a red barn south of Tyler, Texas and shares her farm with her husband, a diva cat, chickens, and an abundance of flower gardens.

"In my transparent watercolor paintings, I strive to show how light and values and the skill of drawing almost always insures a successful painting...both for me and for those seeing my work", Jones said. "The love of drawing has always been important with my art, and I consider myself a representational realist in that realism is a must in my paintings".

Mollie is a member of the American Watercolor Society, National Watercolor Society, Transparent Watercolor Society, and holds Signature Status with the Texas Watercolor Society, Georgia Watercolor Society, Southwestern Watercolor Society, and the Wyoming Watercolor Society.

Stanislaw Zoladz, Sweden

Εικόνα
Stanislaw Zoladz, born in Poland in 1952, moved to Sweden after completing his art education at the Art Academy in Krakow in 1978. Since then he has been active as a full-time artist in Sweden.  He’s participating in many international exhibitions over the world. He has been recognised as “master of watercolours “ after years of painting and many prizes in international competitions.  Stanislaw’s words about his art:  "Nature has always been my source of inspiration, it dominates my works. In the summer I paint in the archipelago. I wait for the sun's reflections on wet rocks, catch shadows, reflections in water and paint stones under the water's surface.   My paintings do not provoke, they lack a direct message, they do not depict the present, but they should make the viewer stop and reflect. I only paint when I myself experience something that touches me and that is the feeling I want to pass on to the viewer"
