Award-winning watercolorist Bridgett Vallery's Popcorn and M&Ms has been selected to take part in The Shelley Lazarus Award for Watercolor Excellence exhibition, open now through April 1 at TAG Gallery located on Los Angeles' Miracle Mile. With a focus on Realism and Hyperrealism, Vallery's art has the remarkable ability to deceive the viewer into thinking they're looking at a photograph. The upcoming exhibition will allow art enthusiasts to observe technical proficiency in every aspect of her work from a closer perspective. In 2001, one of her works of art was auctioned by Sotheby's for $10,000, all proceeds benefitted Texas Children's Hospital. (Photo: Business Wire)
Award-winning watercolorist Bridgett Vallery'sPopcorn and M&Ms has been selected to take part in The Shelley Lazarus Award for Watercolor Excellence exhibition, open now through April 1 at TAG Gallery in Los Angeles.
The public is encouraged to join the artists for refreshments and conversation Friday evening from 5:00-9:00 PM at 5458 Wilshire Blvd.
Vallery's painting, PopcornandM&Ms, was inspired by a favorite movie-night snack and highlights the delicious juxtaposition of the rough texture of popped popcorn and the smooth, candy outer shell of M&Ms through use of vivid colors, intricate details and use of light and shadow.
“Watercolor was originally a sketching tool for the old masters and therefore not considered a serious medium until the last 50 years. Needless to say, I'm thrilled to be in this exhibition among contemporary artists recognized for their talent in the now-respected genre of watercolor,” Vallery said.
