Past Exhibits
Pure Pigment
Pittsburgh Pastel Artists
Pastel is pure pigment, the same pigment used in all art media, such as oil paint or watercolor paint, the only difference being the binder used to hold the pigment together into a usable form. Pastel uses the minimum amount of binder. When properly framed, it is the most permanent of all mediums. Pastel has no liquid binder that may cause the surface to darken, fade, yellow, crack or blister with time. No other medium has the power of color or stability of pastel, holding its color with the passage of time. Pastel artists understand the power of their medium and use it to full advantage.

Reflections by Ash Robles
|
Visit the gallery to see the emotionally packed artwork of local artist Ash Robles.
Working at large scale, “Reflections” highlights her oil painting work capturing emotional and vulnerable moments in life. This exhibition has us brave what we feel and hide of ourselves. “We don’t always have the words to describe what it is we are feeling and sometimes we bottle it up to keep ourselves from being exposed. With ‘Reflections’, I wanted to create an atmosphere that gives the viewer the opportunity to say “Yes, I have been there! I know exactly how that feels.” Reflections is on exhibit until February 28, 2018. |
