History of our Annual Exhibition

The Pastel Society of Victoria, Australia (also known as the PSVA) has been holding Annual Exhibitions since its inception in 1986. The Annual Exhibition is designed to showcase the talents & skills of the members of the Society and the quality of the works exhibited is extremely high.

Works are entered in a number of categories including Landscape (includes Cityscapes), Waterscape, Portrait/Figurative, Still Life/Floral/Interior, Animal/Wildlife & Abstract/Non-Representational. Prizes are awarded in each of these categories, as well as Best in Show, Runner Up Best in Show, The PSVA Award, Margaret Lourey Award and President’s Choice.

All paintings are available for sale and there are some amazing works for your to view. See Purchasing an Artwork.

Pastel is a particularly robust medium and has been used in the fine art world for centuries. More about Pastel as a fine art medium can be found on our home page.
