VIBRANT PASTELS AT PEPPER STREET GALLERIES, MAGILL
28 March to 26 April 2025
Our second exhibition this year at Pepper Street Galleries was a very successful display
of the vibrancy and versatility of artists’ pastels. The wide range of our ‘Vibrant Pastels’
paintings certainly showed a colourful diversity of styles, techniques and subjects.
Visitor comments throughout the exhibition enthused about the talent and creative
expression of our artists, and how ‘modern’ the medium is.
The exhibition opening night on Friday 28 March was a busy and enjoyable event. In
her opening address our president Jill McDonald, presented an engaging ‘show and tell’
about the different forms of pastels and the exciting ways pastels can be used. Many
people commented this made them see soft pastels, and our artists’ works, in a new
light. Several works were sold during the exhibition, each a different and personal
expression of ‘Vibrant Pastels’.
Further highlights of the exhibition for visitors were the weekly demonstrations offered
by PASA members Lesley Jorgensen, Kerryn Hocking and Jill McDonald. Our thanks to
each of these generous members; the feedback we’ve received about their talents and
willingness to answer queries has been very positive indeed.
This vivid exhibition clearly demonstrated the brilliance and intensity of pastel painting
and showed our professional commitment to working with and promoting this wonderful
art medium. Our thanks to all our participating artists and to PASA.
