		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes the sky plays a supporting role in a landscape; other times, it is the star of the show. Either way, knowing how to capture the impact of a dramatic sky is key for anyone interested in painting the landscape. Last fall, Liz Haywood-Sullivan, an artist well known for her luminous pastel landscapes, visited our Cincinnati office to shoot some videos for ArtistsNetworkTV that address key components of the landscape.  <a href="http://www.artistsnetwork.com/articles/art-demos-techniques/paint-skies-in-pastel-new-video"><span class="meta-nav">Full Article</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The National Library Board (NLB) of Singapore, host of a November 2011 exhibition, “Singapore Pastel Art: Impression &#038; Expression,” at the Singapore National Library, is the publisher of a newly released anthology Pastel Art in Singapore. This is the first time that an art exhibition and book were launched together under the NLB sponsorship. How fitting that pastel, whose art history begins in the 18th-century maritime city-state of Venice, should drop anchor in the 21st-century cultural life of the great port and city-state of Singapore. <a href="http://www.artistsnetwork.com/articles/inspiration-creativity/pastels-art-in-singapore-a-review"><span class="meta-nav">Full Article</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently got the sad news of the passing of Mary Silverwood (1932-2011), a pastel artist from New Mexico with whom I spoke for a feature story back in June of 2008. Mary was an inspiring artist and fascinating person, and she is the third pastel artist we've lost in about as many months. The artist Ann Templeton, of Texas, whose expressive landscapes and creative insights were greatly admired, passed away in October, and Sheila Reinman, of Montana, died in November.  <a href="http://www.artistsnetwork.com/articles/inspiration-creativity/in-memoriam-three-recent-losses-in-the-pastel-world"><span class="meta-nav">Full Article</span></a>]]></description>
