In Memory of Anthony Watkins:
We are sorry to report that we lost one of our artists, Anthony Watkins, a Wet Paint participant from the beginning. Anthony was a kind and talented person. He was a good friend to us all and he will be deeply missed. His legacy will live on through his beautiful works as well as the many memories we shared with him. Anthony was raised on a farm in northern Virginia, where he began drawing at an early age and completed his first oil painting at age twelve. Before becoming a full time artist he worked at several engineering positions. Including that of design for Rockwell International’s B-1 Lancer Strategic Bomber for the U.S. Air Force.
Stay tuned for details on the establishment of a scholarship for budding artists in Anthony’s honor.
