1st Prize - Wipe Out by Nanette Oser Oselett

- Comments: How many images were this blended together? What was the inspiration behind this? It reminds me of wiping out into a pit of seaweed on a big day. The colors of the smaller lines bring great layering to this image, just lovely

2nd Prize - Seahorses by Carol Roberts

Comments: he texture of this image seems amazing!

3rd Prize - End of Voyage by Gloria Chadwick

Comments: The amount of detail with watercolor as a medium in this image astounds me, Perfect sunset color gradient in the sky, just wow. I love that the main points of focus are the nets and the palm trees on the horizon

Honorable Mentions

  • El Duelo By Linda Baltodano Bem's - Comments: She looks gorgeous! El Duelo! What is she dueling? Is it the fight to stay alive, or is it her love for the ocean that she would die for? The color palette of blues here is just astonishing! A master demonstration of blending colors. Wow
  • Evening Swells by Jenny Rivera - Comments: the Brush marks are beautiful, I feel like I am really there at high tide on an evening surf after work!
  • Magic Moments by Tony Scriba - Comments: I've seen this type of photo many times and I have always had an appreciation for the depth of field in photos of barrels shots, but watercolor?! How do you capture the depth so well? I am amazed. What was your inspiration?
  • Lip Service by Mike Hefner - Attention to detail got my vote on this one! You must be a surfer, his form is perfect and the details created with watercolor are blowing my mind, an amazing job.
