The show at Beacher Cafe comes down tonight, while another one goes up Friday. The Stouffville Studio Tour artists will be showing their work at the town offices. This is a great way to get a preview of the studio tour.
I haven't been painting much, instead I have been doing admin. work. Submitted 3 pieces to the Pastel Artists of Canada juried show, it will be a while before I know if I get in. I am also working on a book of my art, it's a little more work than I thought, I am hoping to get it done by the end of summer.

Another pastel
I am still working in pastel for now. I tried another night/rain scene, very similar to the first one.
This one has a slightly different angle.
I am planning on submitting one or both to the Pastel Artists of Canada juried show, the deadline is July so I need to get working to finish them.

OSA show
The Ontario Society of Artists show is up and what a great show. The show is at the Aurora Cultural Centre, a great venue with 2 floors of art space. I was very impressed with this show & feel priveledged to have my art showing with such talent. If you get a chance get to the Aurora Cultural Centre, 22 Church St. Aurora, before the show ends July 14th.

Pastel
It's been a while since I painted in pastel. I'm not sure why, considering it is my favorite medium but I just seem to put it away. Recently I had the urge to work with pastel again & I'm glad I did. I love the feel of pastels, it is a very sensuous medium.
Here is the image that I have been working on. I loved the lights on the road as we were driving in the rain (I wasn't driving, I was taking the pictures) I still need to work on the sky a bit but I am quite happy with it. I have also started another pastel that I am hoping to finish soon.
