Breaking News from the Pastel Competition Scene
Posted by Sarah
 This just in from from a pastel society near you:
The Maryland Pastel Society's biennial Shades of Pastel Show is currently on display at beautiful Strathmore Hall in Bethesda, Maryland through October 20th. Juror Bob Rohm chose 100 paintings from 275 submissions. Best in Show went to Bill James for Cuban Grandmother. Lisa Mitchell (MPS President) won first place for In Route to Taos, and Michael McGurk won second place for Blue Fenders.
Photos of the opening reception and a complete listing of the winners are available online here.
Thanks to Jean Hirons, MPS VP and SOP Chair, for giving us the skinny. Send news of your society's show to pjedit@fwpubs.com and see it soon on the PJ blog.
