Northwest Pastel Society Members' Exhibition Results
It was so fun to see the NPS exhibition in person! My daughter and I were staying at a hotel in Burlington (we were having a girls weekend, shopping at all the outlets north of Seattle) and made the half hour drive up to the Blue Horse Gallery for the reception. It's such a beautiful area up there, it's totally worth a visit. Anyway, the reception was great. The gallery is large, and all the art looked wonderful on the walls. I went assuming I didn't win an award because I hadn't been notified ahead of time, but when I arrived I found out they had decided to let it be a surprise this time. My painting "Sun Kissed" won second place in the miniatures category. If you'd like to see the show online and check out the winning pieces, go here and here (the entries are divided alphabetically).

Congrats Kari!! It's a beautiful piece. Personally, I think you should have won first place! :D
Nice reward for something quick on a scrap piece of paper, huh?

Congratulations, Kari!
Thanks, Nancy! Yeah, I guess it pays to be frugal. ;)
Thank you, Edward!
Congratulations. What a great day you had first having girl time with your daughter and then getting such wonderful news at the show.
Thanks, Nancy! It was a lot of fun, and I think particularly for her since it was a painting of her that won the award!
What great news and I'm glad it was such a fun experience! I think all three could have easily placed. Congratulations!
Thank you, Terri! :)

Thanks, Gary!
