The Austin Pastel Society is holding the annual exhibit at the Northwest Hills United Methodist Church for the month of November. We drop off our paintings on October 30 and set up the show, then pick them up on December 3. It is a very nice exhibit space and will be full of the beautiful pastel paintings by APS artists (22 signed up today) in a variety of styles. I hope you either come to the reception or get by at some point and see the show. Most will be for sale so you can start your shopping for the Christmas and the holiday season.
Northwest Hills Gallery Member Exhibition
7050 Village Center Drive
Austin, Texas 78731 (*Map below)
October 30 - December 3, 2012
Reception, Free to the public:
Sunday November 4, 2012
12:15 p.m. - 1:15 p.m
Meet the artists and share refreshments
I will have two paintings there:
Aubergine and Company
Pastel on Pastelbord, 9 x 12 inches
Museum Glass
$195.00
Pastel on Pastelbord, 12 x 6 inches
Museum Glass
$175.00
They are both framed against the glass with no mat. This gives them a feeling of oil paintings as there is little reflection.
Here they are hanging on the wall with a couple of my other paintings.
In the near future I will have my paintings at First Friday Art Walk, Montana Exhibit in Greenville, Ohio and The APS Northwest Hills Exhibit, mentioned above (*map below). My exhibits are on the sidebar, too.
Now I need to do some new paintings!

I sketched out on the porch this morning. It was great weather again. I sketched the wine and cheese in the dining room, almost as good with the view out the windows and the door open.
For Scavenger Hunt 287, I sketched freehand with the Prismacolor Premier 08 marker/pen in the brown paper sketchbook.
Number 9 and 10, movies and popcorn - no movies here so substituted a painting DVD by Richard McKinley, a good pastel teacher and painter. Number 11 and 12, wine and cheese - my little red glass (Thanks, Mercy) and a small 2 oz. triangle of cheese. May do that again sometime, it is hard to find triangle shapes for sketching.

You be a busy woman with another art show. I need to join the OKC group of pastelers and get back into the swing of art shows. The bad taste from the Duncan Art Guild is not quite gone.
I love the paintings.
Thanks, Bag Blog. Organizations are good and bad. I need some of the socializing as we don't do much except baseball. You can get too involved and use your creative time on the group and lose out on your own visions sometimes. I have really slowed down. Except I started doing a newsletter for APS. I usually do the 2 APS shows and that is it. I hope I have a good time at the First Friday!
