MEETINGS:

VWS meets on the second Thursday, each month, September through June, at the Encino Community Center, 4935 Balboa Blvd. Encino, California at 7:30pm.

Masters of watercolor provide rich and varied programs.  They tell about their personal philosophy and demonstrate water media techniques.

WORKSHOPS:

Several times each year, members may study with fine artists through workshops arranged by VWS.  Workshops range from one to five days and feature teacher demonstrations with time for participants to paint and receive instruction and feedback.

EXHIBITS:

The annual juried exhibit provides members a chance to show their best.  A skilled juror, knowledgeable in watercolor medium, selects from CD's those paintings which will be accepted into the exhibit.  Many awards are presented.

View the paintings that won honors in the 2009 exhibit "WATERWORKS" by opening the "Gallery" pages of this web site.

PAINT OUT:

Our monthly Paint Outs provide outdoor painting experiences to member watercolorists.  Some favorite Paint Out locations include Lake Balboa, Los Angeles Zoo, Descanso Gardens, Santa Monica Pier, Orcutt Ranch, Malibu Creek State Park, Leo Carillo Beach and many more around the Los Angleles area.
