Purely Pastel

    

Gorgeous 9x12

Many months ago I proposed a show called Purely Pastel to the Community College, our LCCC.  I was honored and thrilled they liked my concept of a show.  All the work will be in pastel and my teacher, Terrie Lombardi, will do a demo in pastel before the reception.  She will also show several of her pieces.  Because the exhibition is educating about pastel there is also a chance to see a slide show on how pastel is made and  learn about the pure pigment, pastel sticks and papers that combine to create the art work.  So save the date, Wednesday September 12th and join us at 7 PM in the Easter and John Clay Fine Arts Gallery.   See these pieces along with eighteen more through October 11.




Exquisite 8x10





WOW

Yes Works of Wyoming, WOW. http://www.worksofwyoming.org/  They opened a retail store last week. It was a fun day trip to wander that way, overland from Cheyenne.  We jumped in the Tundra around 9 AM and arrived before lunch.  Amazing scnery on the southside of I80.  We drove through the Remount Ranch and dropped down through the Hermosa tunnel and then emerged at Tie Siding and on to Laramie.  Ron and Wyn Ratz were also over for the grand opening so after making our mark on the canvas cloth had lunch next door with them.

We came back via Happy Jack road and Don photographed some scenery.  I loved the truck and may try it in pastel.  It is marking the entrance of the Bunkhouse Bar. 

Chek out WOW next trip to Laramie and don't forget our amazing little jewel at the Univerasity... The Art Museum.
