Michael B. Pearson 2-D Award

Michael B. Pearson Watercolor Painter and Instructor endorsed by the North Augusta Artists Guild

The North Augusta Artists Guild began an eight year relationship with Michael Pearson in 2010 when the Guild endorsed her first watercolor workshop held at the North Augusta Community Center. Michael was a sought after teacher for floral techniques, pen and ink, and acrylics and was a favorite instructor for many artists in this area. When she offered her fourth 3-day workshop on exploring techniques, composition and intuition vs. planning, a regular group of students formed and participated whenever they could attend and an annual visit with Michael became a reality. In 2016, the Guild was fortunate to have Michael serve as our Fall Into Art Show Judge.

We were saddened to learn of her passing in 2018  and will miss her visits and workshops. Because of this wonderful relationship, the North Augusta Artists Guild established the Michael B. Pearson 2-D Award in October, 2018 with the first recipient  announced at the 2018 Fall  Into Art Show.  The recipient of the 2020 award is Ronda Bryce for her watercolor "Apples & Pinecones".  With Michael's  husband's (LTC Robert Pearson) generosity and other  members of the art community, the award will become part of our annual  Art Show.
