JUNE 28th SPS MEETING
Pastel Tips, Training, Techniques and “Here Come the Judge”….
Don’t miss this meeting!
Hey SPS members, this is going to be a Great Meeting – Mid-year Mentor’s Meeting!
The Sunday, June 28th Sierra Pastel Society Membership Meeting is going to be lots of fun, and informative too! 1 PM, El Dorado Hills Senior Center.
Some of our SPS members will have just returned from the June 2015 IAPS (International Society of Pastel Societies) convention in New Mexico with the latest news from the world of Pastels!
There will be short demonstrations, pastel tips, techniques, how-to’s, juried show entry tips, en plein air set-up basics and LOTS MORE from SPS Board Members and other members.
Additionally, we are encouraging EACH OF YOU to send in a tip of your own to share at the meeting* – especially those who live far enough away from the El Dorado Hills location that you usually are unable to join in the fun! If you have a u-tube video or know of a link, there is a big screen TV to view at the facility! This is a perfect opportunity for you to share a technique, “secret” that you have learned, or perhaps one that you have read (or even heard) from one of the seminars you have attended.
Sometimes it’s those little secrets that help you bring your work to the next level – or to the next show – or even to your next masterpiece/award!
MARK YOUR CALENDARS TODAY and then E-Mail me
If you send information in advance we can prepare a hand-out for the meeting.
