​UART Tip #37: “Creating Edge Variety Through Thick and Thin” with Barbara Jaenicke

https://www.uartpastelpaper.com/uart-tip-37/
Pastel Society of New Mexico 2021 National Exhibition

Entries for the Pastel Society of New Mexico 2021 National Exhibition began today are now
being accepted at www.ShowSubmit.com
We are excited to be holding a "hybrid" show this year with paintings physically showing in a museum gallery (The Millicent Rogers Museum in Taos, New Mexico), but with the unique option to artists who would prefer to show only in our online interactive virtual exhibition if they choose.  The paintings showing in the museum will also be included in the online virtual show and our Judge, Nancie King Mertz, will choose awards from all accepted entries.
The deadline to submit work is Saturday, April 17.  Please share this with your pastel society’s members. ​

San Miguel de Allende 2020!
A group of GPA members were so fortunate to travel to 
San Miguel de Allende end of January 2020.
​Little did we know that in the near future all travel will stop.







​Shout out to Vic Mastis and Susan Rogers!  Both of them had paintings that were accepted into the 
Pastel Journal’s  Pastel 100 Competition in 2019!
