I’m happy to announce that my pastel painting Ballard Hardware Building received the Director’s Award at the Northwest Pastel Society’s Annual Exhibition. About this painting, juror Kim Lordier said,
“Atmopsheric, goregeous. and masterful design. This tiny painting has an epic impact. Make sure to get up close and inspect the subtle use of color temperature shifts that coalesce to create a beautifully atmopsheric environment.”
Ballard Hardware Building, pastel on paper, 6 x 10 inches. This piece is part of my ongoing “Azure & Asphlat” series. It uses a triadic color scheme of red, yellow and blue. These three colors are as different as three colors can be, but if they are not used in equal proportions, it can make for a very light-filled color scheme, without appearing clashy.
