I too generally prefer the look of a mat. However, I have framed many pastels without a mat. I use the extruded plastic spacers, 1/8 inch, and press their adhesive side to the glass, then lay in the picture. It's always an aggravation, though, getting the painting to stay with the board when the paper hasn't previously been dry-mounted.
