Pastel Painters Guild Europe

I have developed a real love of pastel even though it has as many problems for the artists as those that it solves. Pastel painting still has to win over the skeptics. I came accross the guild through the pastel painters journal. I have always been unsure of how my work was progressing so when stating an interet in becoming a member I left the level of membership to their judgement. How surprised I was to be accepted at professional level. I feel greatly honoured and it is a spur for me to try and progress my pastel work.
