The delightful freshness that Tom Nicholas brings to every
painting is the result of painstaking preparation - dozens of drawings and
many small color sketches. Nicholas has won 49 major awards and has
had more than two dozen one-man shows. His works hang in 14 museums.
In this painting, of a sugarhouse where maple syrup is boiled down, Nicholas
has captured the magnificence of the Vermont countryside in winter.

Marion B. Brown, a graduate of Pratt Institute is a teacher
of art and an award-winning watercolourist skilled in using a limited
palette to give her pictures an unforgettable mood. Her Gold Medal
watercolour was painted in the Captree resort area near her home on Long
Island. In it, she skillfully contrasts the softness of clouds and
dunes with the brilliant sparkle on the waves.

legendary Don Quixote began his adventures.

Bogomir Bogdanovic's watercolours are in about a thousand
collections throughout the world, including the home of President Sukarno of
Indonesia. A native of Yugoslavia, Bogdanovic delights in the scenery
of his adopted country. When he first came to the U.S., he lived on
Central Park and never tires of painting it. He calls the park " a
beautiful, tranquil oasis in the greatest city I ever met."
