Rhonda Whittington
I was a teacher of primary age children until 2017. I wanted to do something in my retirement years that would challenge me, so I chose art because it was something I had never had any interest in and knew nothing about. Since 2017 I have taken several workshops from Master Pastel Artists and have been a student in the Virtual Art Academy.
As well as being a member of the Burlington Fine Arts Association, I am also a signature member of the Pastel Artists of Canada, the Pastel Guild of Europe, and the Grimsby Lakeshore Pumphouse Artists.
