a new book about pastels

Finally! Here is the news I've alluded to a couple times on my blog since last August.

Art Answers: Pastels Drawing will be published in the UK and in the US in June. This is a book I compiled of 200 questions and answers. It features images of my pastel paintings, step by step demos and text. I have also included other pastel artists' work and words. What started out as a minor project turned into a major undertaking that I am proud of. I've seen the proof but look forward to holding the finished book in my hands.

Also, my July 2013 pastel workshop, Landscape Impressions, is full with a waiting list. Thanks to all who responded. I hope to have this new book available at the workshop as well as online. I'll keep you posted!
