FALLBROOK – The Fallbrook Art Center’s Inaugural Signature American Watercolor Exhibition opened with the announcement of the first-place winning watermedia work titled ‘Odyssey’ by artist Su Y. Kown.

The Signature exhibition is unique in that all exhibitors have achieved Signature Membership status in a recognized U.S. Watermedia Society or Association, which brings the show to a prestigious level.
