You may be wondering why I have made such a fuss over the pastels made at Kitty Wallis' studio with her Moist Pastels.
Simply put, they are PURE COLOR. Kitty has spent years creating formulae for mixing pure color from pure pigments and finding just the right white chalk so that there is no hint of gray in even the lightest mixtures.
Painting with Kitty's pastels is like painting with light.
Tomorrow, I will use them! I can hardly wait!

Light is a thing that cannot be reproduced, but must be represented by something else – by color. (Paul Cezanne)
