Florida Southwest Watercolor Society
From 1938 to 1941, the Florida Water Color Society held its first three exhibitions. The current Florida Watercolor
Society evolved from these early roots, solidifying its commitment to the art much later — in 1972. At that time, Guy
Beattie, director of the Maitland Art Center, invited Florida watercolorists to contribute work for an exhibition. Miles
Batt, a member of the American Watercolor Society juried and judged the show. From that show, and with the support of 26
charter members, the Florida Watercolor Society was born. Its mission is succinct: to contribute to the cultural
atmosphere of Florida and provide education and assistance to anyone interested in watercolor painting.
Today, more that 1,150 artists are members of the Florida Watercolor Society.

Tapestry Artists of Sarasota (TAOS)
Feb 5th to Feb 18th 2011
Tapestry has a long history of serving the interests of Royalty and the Church while enjoying their patronage. While our
weaving techniques remain within the realm of Unicorns and Damsels the content of our work is personal and speaks from a
modern perspective. We each create works that speak about the concerns, beliefs or joys we find in our lives. Some of us
work with realistic imagery some with abstraction. Together we were commissioned to weave five large panels of tapestry f
or Temple Beth Sholom in Sarasota. This work was well received by the community and is our only group project to date.
Tapestry Artists of Sarasota is composed of five tapestry artists.* We came together in 1997 with the shared interest of
exhibiting our work in the Sarasota area and throughout the USA. Tapestry Artists of Sarasota cultivate and advance
contemporary tapestry through exhibitions. Members are studio artists individually pursuing the design and production
of original hand-woven tapestries. *Lynn Mayne, Becky Stevens, John Nicholson, Patricia Looper and Patricia Loper.
