I think I've found one! *MINI*
I came across this:

while hunting for my project wish list.
It's not the bright pinks that I really would love to have, but it's really cute!  |

If you're looking for a pink Masdevallia, try Masdevallia caudata... the synsepals are pink, and the dorsal being yellow.
Another pink one is Masdevallia chaparensis... has dark purple spots on it.
There are some pink flowering forms of Masdevallia coccinea, the vast majority being purple.
Not sure if any of this is relevant to what you are looking for...

If you are looking for masdevallias...
www.pleurothallids.com
See if Lynn has anything on offer, she is an amazing pleurothallid grower (one of the best in the country). And more than happy to answer your e-mail. I'm sure she knows a dozen pink masdevallias off the top of her head, and which ones wouldn't grow for you. |

Thanks everyone 
I came across a number of them while on our mini search at Andy's. I hadn't realized that there are so many I could possibly take care of properly. I had gotten some incorrect info, as I was told that they do not grow in warm temps...period! What a mount of misinformation that was! I appreciate everybody's input on this, the next shopping spree I treat myself to will probably be for a large plant as I have 2 minis coming next week  |
