I had a wonderful time teaching and observing other artists' demos at what will now be the last IAPS (International Association of Pastel Societies) to be held. I had an amazing time and will be sad to see it not continue.
Here is my demonstration from my class I taught there that was about doing a landscape with figures. It is a 12 x 16 Pastel
I had a magical week with three other amazing artists in Acadia in Maine. Barbara Jaenicke, Lyn Asselta and Anne Strutz. It was both inspirational and intimidating! I am more of a studio artist so the challenge was on. But, being with them and just taking my time to learn was a great experience. And they were wonderful women to hang with too! Here are my 8 x 10 oils.
This 16 x 20 pastel, "Woodland Stream" has been accepted into the American Impressionist National Juried Show
Here are some recent demos from both a pastel workshop in New London, NH and my Monday oil class. I was asked to show how to do refelections in pastel in the Monday class so I did two demos that day, and one was in oil.
This is my 9 x 12 pastel demo from my one day pastel workshop at Studio Arts Center in Barre, VT
