The Pastel Painters of Maine was established in 1999 by a group of Southern Maine artists interested in soft pastels. The mission of PPOM is to promote the medium of soft pastel, to unite local and regional artists, and to heighten the public’s awareness of the medium. Since its founding, membership has grown to over 145 with members from throughout the US and Canada.

Member shows are held annually. Regular “paint outs” are offered as well as life painting groups. For further information about the Pastel Painters of Maine and Member Exhibition at The Carver Hill Gallery please contact nancylovley@roadrunner.com or visit the website at www.pastelpaintersofmaine.com.
