Pastel

 

Karole Nicholson has focused on soft pastels as her medium for the past 12 years. Studying with pastel masters, participation in national juried exhibitions, gallery representation and regular studio time keep her focused on her development as an artist. Karole’s art travels have brought her to Peru, Italy and New Mexico. She is a member of the Pastel Society of America, Pastel Painters of Cape Cod and the CT Pastel Society.

The composition of “Outbound” depicting travelers on the MBTA, leaving the Attleboro Station engaged me. Of particular interest was the variety in posture, age, dress. The paintings begs one to wonder why they are traveling to Boston … job, pleasure, school, shopping? How are each of the travelers feeling? Do they carry joy, stress, curiosity? I hope those looking at “Outbound” will have the same sense of wonder as they view it.
