Bonnie Rinier, an artist and resident of Winchester, has won the Second Place award in the highly competitive March 2025 San Diego Watercolor Society (SDWS) Member’s exhibition “Nature’s Alchemy”, an in-gallery show of the SDWS at 2825 Dewey Road in Liberty Station, San Diego.Rinier’s painting titled “Contemplation” was selected by prominent San Diego artist Kathleen Scoggin for this honor, out of over 270 entries. Scoggin said of the painting, “This painting jumped out at me from the beginning. The division of space into the large shapes, and the muted color palette are so well done. You get a sense of feeling her attention to what she is looking at, and of wondering what she is thinking about. I particularly like the overall design and the color palette.”Bonnie
