Showing posts with the label Pastel Society
Affordable Art Fair Slept like a log, untroubled by undead felines, and went downstairs to eat crumpets and toast with Mum and Mase. Then I wrote a little bit of copy for her website and we set off for the Affordable Art Fair . Tubed it down to Sloane Square and stopped off at the Oriole for a glass of wine. Then off to the venue in the free bus. Spent several hours browsing about. Enjoyed the show a lot more than the last one I went to. Found myself drawn to a couple of forest pastels by Sarah Bee not my usual bag, but I found they reminded me slightly of Emily Carr (without the totem poles of course). Actually her name was Sarah Bee P.S. - the initials stand for her membership of the Pastel Society. I have no idea what they get up to in the Pastel Society, but I imagine several eminent figures ranting against primary colours. Okay I know it is really about using pastels... But I bet they have secret smudgy handshakes. Mason uses the AAF to talk to lots of people who can't escape...
