The Sierra Watercolor Society returns to the Wilbur D. May Museum with a new exhibition of original watercolor paintings. Local and regional artists were asked to paint their botanical impressions of spring – including plants, flowers, and nature. The result is the “Honoring Mother Nature” exhibition, featuring dozens of paintings that evoke the allure and beauty of spring. All paintings in the exhibition are available for purchase. Visitors are also invited to vote for their favorite painting to win the coveted “People’s Choice Award.”
