Come see for yourself the Beauty of Pastel in an exhibit of new works by the Pastel Artists of Hawaii (PAH).
PAH is a Hawaii-wide group of artists who produce works using soft, sometimes known as dry, pastels. The pieces must consist of at least 80% soft pastel. Used for hundreds of years by the likes of Mary Cassatt, Edgar Degas, Pablo Picasso, and Pierre-August Renoir, soft pastels are nothing more than pigment (or color) held in a stick form by a minimum amount of binder, allowing the artists many ways of applying and manipulating the color.
This exhibit will be juried by nationally recognized master pastelist, Teresa Saia (www.teresasaia.com/about). Previous jurors have frequently commented how the artists’ love of Hawaii is evident through the many submitted paintings featuring local views. Come see the islands and more through the eyes of these local artists. You may discover some beauty you’ve often overlooked…
