Wow! I am always so inspired by the featured artists on your blog! Mark Price’s work takes pastel painting to a different & truly imaginative level! Would love to try something similar!
My wheels are turning.
Thank you for what you do, Gail!

I’m truly honored that Gail choose me as the featured artist for this months blog. She did terrific job in detailing my artistic journey throughout the years. The pastel medium is such an exciting one and it continues to motivate me to create every day. Gail’s endless energy in the pastel world is much appreciated by this artist! Thanks again, you did a wonderful piece,

I’m so glad you enjoyed Mark’s guest post Susan! Interesting that you used the grid idea when you were doing watercolour. Can’t wait to hear how your experiment goes with grid and abstraction.
Thanks to Karen for the suggestion to sign-up…but you’re already a long-time subscriber of HowToPastel. If you’re having trouble getting them, please email me.
Thanks Susan!

Thank you, Gail for posting Mark Price’s awesome and imaginative paintings!!! I so look forward to your emails. Years ago, when I was into watercolor, I did a small grid like painting. I’m overjoyed now to attempt an abstract pastel painting and possibly create a grid. Karen Margulis suggested signing up for your newsletter, which I did twice, and have thus far, not received one. I have been a follower of yours for several years and I greatly appreciate you and your work and guest artists.

These are stunning!
One question: how does Mark frame/present these works and does he use any fixative? They look somewhat fragile, but on his website he has a photo of his studio with pieces leaning up against one another.
