Revamped website and a sketch of Fairfax hills

I've just revamped my website with larger images so you can better see detail. This may make images load a little slower but I hope it's worth the wait. Let me know if it is cumbersome. There are also several new works on the site. http://www.willnoble.com/

I plan to start showing art from my sketchbook in blog posts. Here's one that I did up above the town of Fairfax, California, in the Marin Watershed.

Marinscapes

Just completed the 2014 annual Marinscapes show, benefiting Buckelew Programs. Great time with fellow artists and people interested in Marin landscape art. They say it was the most successful show ever. All for a good cause.

What are we doing to our water? Check out the documentary 'Watermark'.




Here is a trailer for Watermark , a documentary that explores the life force that sustains us all. It tells diverse stories from around the world about our relationship with water: how we are drawn to it, what we learn from it, how we use it and the consequences of that use. 

It opens in theaters on April 18. Check your local listings. It is also available on Netflix.

Current and Upcoming Exhibitions

2014 has shaped up to be a busy year for showing my art.

I just delivered six paintings to the Redwood Foyer Gallery of the Marin Veterans' Auditorium for an invitational watercolor show that will be up until early June. So if you are attending an event there, be sure to check out the show during intermission.

I've been invited to be part of Marinscapes in late June. This established annual Marin landscape show raises funds for Buckelew Housing. It is always well attended and garners lots of sales. Hopefully with the economy recovering, that will be even more true this year, as it is an excellent cause.

Then in November-December, I will be in a three-person show at Falkirk Cultural Center in San Rafael, titled 'Three Different Views of Water: Paintings by Nelson Hee, Will Noble and Mary Wagstaff.' The gallery is divided into three rooms and each artist will have a room. The reception will be like visiting three artists' studios.
