5th Annual Waterscapes Art Exhibition – October 2020

Welcome to Fusion Art’s 5th Annual Waterscapes International Online Juried Art Exhibition for the month of October 2020.

For this competition, both 2D and 3D artists were encouraged to share their best art and photography depicting waterscapes. All artists, over the age of 18, regardless of location or experience, were encouraged to submit their best work in any media.

We once again received a diverse collection of quality artwork from artists all around the world, including the US, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, China, Russia, Argentina, Hong Kong, Uruguay, Israel, Italy, New Zealand, Portugal and Denmark. Overall, the gallery judged 419 entries for the exhibition, which will be featured on the website for the month of October.

In this monthly themed exhibition, Fusion Art presents awards in three categories: Traditional Art, Photography & Digital Art, and 3-Dimensional Art. The Waterscapes Best in Show winners are Jan Kornegay Dappen for her oil painting, “Reflections at Lake Louise”, John Diephouse for his photograph, “Lake Superior Stillness” and Michele Bourdeau for her bonded bronze, “Wave”.

The remaining finalists in the exhibition all exemplify uniquely creative talents and we’re honored to showcase their artwork on the Fusion Art website.

Fusion Art strives to create interesting and enjoyable art exhibitions with a variety of artistic styles and media represented. The art that is selected is based on the theme of the exhibition and the gallery’s objective is to include, in every Fusion Art exhibition, a broad representation of quality, style, media, creativity, originality and artistic composition. Art tells a story and we strive to select artwork, particularly for awards, that make the viewers think and wonder what story the artist is trying to tell.

As always, we’d like to take this opportunity to thank all the competition participants. While not all the artwork that was submitted was selected for inclusion in the exhibition this in not necessarily a reflection on any one artist’s talent and/or skill.  It takes courage for artists to offer up one’s art up for critique by others and all the artists should be applauded for their efforts. We appreciate all of you sharing your extraordinary talent with us.

For anyone interested in purchasing any of the artwork in this exhibition, please contact the artists directly. You will find the artist’s website and/or email information below their work.

Please visit our YouTube Archives or our YouTube Channel to see the Traditional and 3-Dimensional and Photography & Digital videos for the exhibition.

Thank you for visiting our website and enjoy the exhibition!
