Happening at PLACE...

The Juror's awards are posted for the 2012 Pastel Artists of Hawaii show.  Teri Ford, PSA, stated, "The overall body of work depicts what I perceive as a great love of place.  A passion for the local surroundings, landscape and culture are evident."  Stop in to see the show any day except Sunday through December 7th.

Terri also conducted a four day workshop in which she demonstrated her technique of using "dark" backgrounds applied with an alcohol wash over pastel.

Please enjoy our experience through these photographs.

COME SEE!!!

Pastel Artists of Hawaii just finished installing their 9th Annual Exhibit in PLACE Galleries. 

Pastel Paintings have a long history in the western world and I have seen the most beautiful pastel portraits and landscapes in European manors and palaces.  They are radiant and have stood the test of time.  There is a soft glow to the media which cannot be achieved with oils and acrylics.  The island scenics in this show are plentiful and capture delicate fleeting moments exclusive to Hawaii.  I have overseen the installation and staged each grouping with accessories unique to PLACE. 

Please make a reservation if you would like to stop in tomorrow, Saturday, November 10th between 6-8pm for wine, pupus and to meet the artists.  If not, come by any day except Sunday through December 7th.

Aloha, Mary
