Gene rode his trike so I sketched in front of the garage. Cloudy but warm out, pretty perfect for Hunting.

If any of you are in Texas you are welcome to enter this pastel show received from Enid Wood, President of the Austin Pastel Society:
Please paint for the All TX All Pastel Juried Open Exhibition and ask your Texas resident pastelist friends to do the same! You might even encourage artists friends who normally work in another medium to try pastel.
The show is May 4 through June 15 at Artworks, 1214 W 6th St in Austin, a friendly and prestigious gallery. You have until Sunday, March 24 to enter. Delivery of paintings is April 30 & May 1.
The purpose of this show is to increase the visibility of the pastel medium in Texas, and to get to know all the pastel artists in Texas a little better. We’ll have an in-person opening and awards presentation on Saturday, May 11, featuring a gallery tour led by our distinguished Juror and Judge, Rita Kirkman, PSA-MP, IAPS-EP, CPS. All prizes are cash prizes, with a top award of $1000.
We need the help of every member to make sure that every pastelist in Texas knows about the show and that many of them enter. We have space for 80 paintings in the show. Wouldn’t it be great to have paintings from 80 different artists!?
