Submission for Entry is open RIGHT NOW and will close on Friday 5th March at 12 noon.
Despite the challenges experienced in 2020, the RI are optimistic that the new show will build upon the continuing success that the society has experienced.The RI’s last show, delayed by the pandemic, was one of the best in recent times showcasing over 400 watercolour paintings from artists in the UK and around the World. Half of these were contributed by non-members in line with the ethos of the RI established in 1831, to promote artists who are not affiliated to any ‘Society’.
The new health and safety measures for the pandemic have required that submission and selection will be online only for the 2021 Exhibition. However, the RI Council are optimistic that this will encourage even more artists to send in their work.
With a prize fund of over £8,000 the RI open Exhibition traditionally attracts accomplished watercolourists from around the World and 2021 will be no exception. In these challenging times the RI will continue to rise to the challenge.
