Art Show Is Big Success

The dates of the 2016 Seascape Art Show have been announced!

February 20 and 21, 2016 at the Seascape Conference Center located in the Seascape Golf Resort. 

Sharon Long, local watercolor artist and her fellow artists will be on hand with their art. I am happy to be showing my art at the upcoming Annual Seascape Art Show and Sale. It was a great success and is now in its 25th year! I have only been in the show for the last five years but find it to be even better every year. The two-day event was recently held in the Conference Center of Seascape Resort in Destin, FL. www.slongwatercolors.com

Sharon Long, a local watercolor artist and my personal mentor hosts this annual event to promote the work of her clients and friends that participate in her watercolor classes. She estimates around 500 locals and tourists attend the two day event that features original art, prints, gifts, and cards from their watercolor creations. 

We will be on hand to meet the participants, show off our works and sell our creations. I love the interaction with the people as they view my work and share their comments and ideas. Of course I always get lots of comments on my Southern accent too!

This show is a much anticipated event for us and I just love mentoring many of these budding artists and helping them to prepare to show off their works in an art show. Our winter guests become much more than just class participants….they become our friends. I have a large group of friends that I paint with during the winter. We will not see them again until next winter when we will rekindle our friendships and begin painting together again. 

I was thrilled with the support the community showed us at the last show and look forward to making it even more fun this year.

If you are interested in watercolor lessons or thinking of a fun activity next time you are in Destin, let us know. Sharon and I would love to have you join us for a class and have you create your own piece of art from the beach!


You can see more of our work at the local art gallery “Retail Therapy” located on Hwy 98 across from the outlet mall in Destin, FL. It is a “Must See” for shopping in Destin…make sure you give yourself at least an hour to see it all!
