e’ve been introducing our
picks for Ones to Watch for
the past 15 years—and the thrill
never gets old. When we launched
this (now annual) feature, our idea
was to showcase the artists we
thought might be the next to win a
big prize at a national show or break
into a hot gallery—artists like you
who are taking workshops, improv-
ing your craft, maybe even entering
your i rst competitive shows. And to
i nd those folks, we went straight to
our friends on the frontlines—the exhibition jurors and instructors who
spot the emerging talents long before they come to our attention.
That i rst year’s crop of Ones to Watch included the likes of Ann
Pember, Mark Mehaffey, Donna Zagotta and Ruth Armitage, all of whom
have gone on to become internationally recognized artists and instruc-
tors in their own right. We asked them many of the same questions we
asked this year’s group, including, “What was your most recent or signii-
cant creative breakthrough, the aha moment that has set your work on
a new course or helped you express your artistic intention or aesthetic
more clearly?”
It will be exciting to see where the artists featured in this year’s “Ones
to Watch” (page 47) are in 15 years. And what about you? Where will
you
be? Perhaps the details of your own creative breakthrough hold a clue.
Head on over to Instagram and tag us @ArtistsNetwork to share your
most important aha moment. (If you haven’t joined us on Instagram, you
should. It’s the perfect opportunity to get behind-the-scenes action from
your favorite i ne art community. Go to
instagram.com/artistsnetwork
and hit follow.)
Here’s hoping the fruit of your latest light bulb moment lands you on
next year’s Ones to Watch list!
