Richard Proctor (5-224) has a couple of works in the Pastel Society Annual Exhibition 2020 at the Mall Galleries from 5-16 February. The Pastel Society says of itself and the exhibition that "The Pastel Society is recognised as foremost in its field, a magnet for brilliant exponents of the pastel medium showing the work of leading contemporary artists and visitors can be confident of seeing a variety of approaches." Richard says of the exhibition "The exhibition will be strongly representational and figurative, focusing on highly technical works using pastels and charcoal, so I was surprised when they accepted two of my entries as they show neither of these attributes, but they are pastels." Exhibition open daily, 10am-5pm. The Mall, St. James's, London SW1. www.mallgalleries.org.uk Image: Richard Proctor, courtesy the artist, 2020
