    The common thread of WAOW artists is the passion for their work and the desire to express the joy and beauty of the world around them. As the oldest women artists organization, WAOW members have collectively made their mark on the art world.

    Members are initially juried to become a WAOW member and then must submit work to a seven-member blind jury for acceptance into the national exhibition. WAOW is pleased and proud to present the work of these outstanding, talented members in their 49th National Exhibition, Mountain Aire. The entire exhibition catalog and images of the award-winning paintings of the Exhibition are posted on the Women Artists of the West website.

    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor.
