Message from the PSNC President
As we Spring forward through the year, I assess what we’ve done to help you grow in your pastel competency, and in your goals. “Some people” Luana Winner remarked recently “are not trying to sell, they are trying to get better.” Ah! Art for art’s sake. To me that’s delicious. It’s PSNC’s mission to respond to this dream. Our goal is to promote pastels and the study of pastels. The first thing is to love the materials – the sight and smell of them, the colors the values, the serendipity of simultaneous contrasting color! We long to be a part of something called “art” that for thousands of years has inspired the least among us to be the best they can be, to participate, to belong, to be the best each person can be in their own heart. What else is life for?
