The Pacific Art League proudly presents the Open Themed Watercolor Exhibition, a celebration of the versatility, vibrancy, and expressive power of watercolor. This exhibition showcases a diverse range of artistic perspectives, from abstract explorations to realistic renderings, personal narratives to imaginative worlds.

Highlighting the depth of emotion, technique, and creativity achievable in watercolor, this collection brings together works from both emerging and established artists. Visitors are invited to experience the rich interplay of color, texture, and form as artists push the boundaries of this dynamic medium.

Join us in celebrating the beauty and innovation of watercolor at the Pacific Art League.

JUROR

Amy Rattner

Amy Storey Rattner lives in Woodside, California with her husband, two sons and two Bernese mountain dogs. She graduated from Stanford University with a BA and MA in English and started her career in graphic design before discovering her passion for fine art in 2006 while taking classes at the Pacific Art League (PAL) in Palo Alto. She has not put the brush down since. After attending an intensive water media workshop in Taos, New Mexico led by famed watercolor artists Skip Lawrence, Christopher Schink, Fran Larsen, and Katherine Chang Liu, Amy discovered a new, fresh style of painting that is uniquely her own.

 Amy's work belongs to private collections worldwide, including those in Woodside, Carmel, Santa Fe, Boston, France and Norway. Her work is currently available at Viewpoints Gallery in Los Altos, California and has been featured in exhibitions throughout California, at Wow! Gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico and online at Ugallery, a curated online gallery featuring top emerging and established artists from around the world. Amy’s artwork has been highlighted in Art and Color 365 magazine, Art of the WestSouthwest Art,  Palette Magazine, and the Salinas Californian newspaper. Most recently, her work earned Best in Show in Fusion Art's "5th Anniversary Exhibition" in October 2020, Artistic Recognition awards in Art and Color 365 magazine's 2024 "Animals" and 2023 "Abstracts and Semi-Abstracts" exhibitions and Honorable Mention in the Coastal Arts League's "Anything Goes!" exhibition. Amy is a member of Allied Artists West, Art Bias, the Santa Clara Valley Watercolor Society, the California Art Club, the California Watercolor Association and the Association of Animal Artists.
