Award & show

Today, I got "Second in show" at the Annual Juried Show with Austin Pastel Society. I'm pretty happy about that. There were 4 categories: landscape, portrait, wildlife, still life, plus the Best in show category (Best in show, 1st,2nd and 3rd in show).

The juror was Desmond O'Hagan - PSA Master Pastellist. The show (50 paintings) will be displayed until May 3rd at Chase Bank Corridor of Art, 700 Lavaca, Austin, Tx, 78701.



Earlier today I got the following two paintings accepted in the 1st Juried Competition/Exhibition with the Texas Pastel Society in San Antonio.

The juror is Lorenzo Chavez.

The reception is open to the public on April 16th from 7 - 9 pm at Coppini Academy of Fine Arts, upstairs gallery, 115 Melrose Pl., San Antonio, Texas.

The show (49 paintings) will run from April 16th until May 3rd.
