Good friend and extraordinary pastel artist, Donna Hale passed this week. She was the hardest worker of all of us, rolling her cart into a spot and starting her painting before some of us arrived. Then she’d keep working, usually right through lunch while the rest of us chatted. Donna’s pastels captured the light and feeling of any place she put her easel. She helped with our shows, registration, labels for exhibits, whatever needed doing was done well. And you were always guaranteed a beautiful smile.
A regular at the winter salon, here she is asking for a critique at our winter salon.
The weather is no problem, just wear more clothes!
At the Buckhorn State Park fishing dock, a favorite spot for views in all directions.
Rain? We have Artist umbrellas for sun which double up for rain.
Donna emceed our workshop for Plein air painters.
We will miss you, dear friend, your advice, smiles and company were a gift.
