Congratulations! Be sure to post a photo of your demo, for those of us who can’t make it.

Thanks Karen. I’ll try to remember to do that. Doubt it will be as a work in progress though. Within that 2 hours I know I’ll most likely be talking to people who have questions about the process of pastel.
Now I just need to decide what I’ll paint! Given your preferred subjects, perhaps you should be doing this demo.

Thank you all for your kind comments.

The demo isn’t until mid June so please be patient. 🙂

Thank you Pam. As you could see on my website, I don’t stick to just one painting style. Supposedly that’s a “no-no”, but then I prefer to paint for myself. If others like it, I’m honored.

Congratulations Peggy! So exciting… this painting has a “latin” feel…if you know what i mean…

Not certain I do, but perhaps it is the colors and simplicity of composition? I love the brigh colors and unfussy composition often associated with Latin artwork.

I know they aren’t truly “Latin”, but the native fabric art known as mola is something I find fascinating. We bought several of them when we were there in the late 1960s; the most expensive ones were 50 cents, and the largest sizes they made. I was sad to learn when we saw them again during our cruise about 4 years ago that the Kuna Indians are not making them as much as they once did, and it’s becoming a dying art form. Needless to say, the prices are now WAY higher now!
