Susan Weinberg-Harter, an artist and resident of University Heights, San Diego, California, has won the Best of Miniatures award in the continuingly competitive February 2022 San Diego Watercolor Society (SDWS) Member’s exhibition “Simple Pleasures”, an in-gallery show of the SDWS at 2825 Dewey Road in Liberty Station, San Diego, CA. Weinberg-Harter’s painting entitled “Beach Rest” was selected by prominent local artist and juror Thomas Franco for this honor, out of over 200 entries. Franco said of the painting, “This painting obviously shows a very competent use of watercolor. It is clean, and the figures at the edge of the water are beautiful.”
