As the 2019 Watercolor Art Prize begins, there is great excitement among artists who use this medium to create amazing watercolor paintings.

BY OGENENE TY

Watercolor is a difficult medium to handle. Many watercolorists will not hesitate to say so. However, difficult as it is, many artists have used the medium for centuries to create amazing works that are in museums and private collections across the globe.

In the 20th and 21st century artists like Wassily Kandinsky, Emil Nolde, Paul Klee, Egon Schiele, Raoul Dufy, Charles Burchfield, Edward Hopper, Georgia O’Keeffe, Charles Demuth, and John Marin created major artworks using watercolor.

Through the years, the love of the watercolor medium has continued to grow among artists. Many young contemporary artists have taken up the medium, creating works that deserve commendation. That is the reason for organizing the Watercolor Art Prize.
