2022 It's Pastel! PSNH Juried National Exhibition
It is our pleasure to share with you our exciting National Exhibition! In addition to this virtual page, the 2022 show is on display at Discover Portsmouth! It is a joy to see the works in person, and we highly encourage a visit if you are in the vicinity. And for those who live a distance, we are pleased to bring you this online celebration of great work in the pastel arts.
This year's Juror of Selection was Gail Sibley. As we had over 225 entries, she was tasked with selecting only 79 to be included in this year's show. From the 79 works, our Juror of Awards, Alain Picard designated 26 works to receive this year's awards totaling nearly $6000! We also have 2 awards chosen by Gail Sibley, and 1 to be selected by you, The People's Choice! Voting will close November 15th!
Below is our gallery showcasing all accepted pieces. If you click on any piece, it will open into a slide gallery with larger images.
