Moab Pastel Guild Show
Exhibition of Lyrical Landscapes at Dead Horse Point State Park The Moab Pastel Guild hosted an opening reception for its exhibition, “Lyrical Landscapes,” at the Bighorn Gallery at Dead Horse Point State Park on Saturday, May 4. Approximately 140 people joined the artists to view and discuss their works and enjoy refreshments. The show is open to the public and will run through June 29. The Guild is a group of like-minded artists who meet weekly to paint, offer mutual support, inspire one another, and critique each others’ work. All share a deep love of the surrounding landscape and its ever-changing light, moods, and colors. These artists began learning to paint with pastels under the tutelage of accomplished Moab pastel painter J.C. Borders, and have been working together for years developing their skills. They have enthusiastically embraced opportunities to learn and experiment with different techniques and approaches to composition. Over time, each has developed a unique personal vision and style, ranging from detailed realism to more loosely rendered impressions of the landscape and its flora and fauna. The participating artists are: Helen Becker Peggy Harty J.C. Borders Marsha Modine Mary Collar Thea Nordling Victoria Fugit Margie Lopez Read Sarah Hamingson Larry Thomas During the exhibition the paintings, as well as prints and note cards, will be available for purchase. Dead Horse Point State Park is located nine miles north of Moab on US 191, and 23 miles south on SR313. The Bighorn Gallery is in the lower level of the Park Visitor Center, and is open daily from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Park admission is $10. For more information, please contact the park at (435)259-2614.
For more information, call Margie Lopez Read at 530-306-5265, or send an email to bread1@comcast.net.
