WARA 2019 World Finals Round 2 Entry

WARA World Finals Round 2 - MOMENT OF SILENCE Original Pastel Painting

My entry for Round 2 of the WARA – Western Art Rodeo Association’s World Finals show is one that I entered earlier in the year, too – MOMENT OF SILENCE, a 24” x 18” pastel painting on Pastelbord. Voting for the People’s Choice Award for Round 2 is open from Dec. 10th – Dec. 14th if you’d like to go vote for all your favorites! I truly appreciate every like, comment, share, and vote… and I know every other artist does, as well! And, I promise, I have a new pastel painting to enter in the 3rd and final round of the year (next week) if I make to cut! 🤠

Award Winning Pastel Painting

MOMENT OF SILENCE was awarded BEST OF SHOW and 1st Place in the Dry Medium category of the WARA – Western Art Rodeo Association’s “2019 Frontier Stampede” online show in August of 2019.
