Great as always Jeanne! Sorry I could not make your talk at the museum. I saw the exhibit, but will need to return at a later date as my visit was not conducive to getting to really absorb the pieces and their intricacies. One question for you, what do you think of the museums use of "delicate" and "fragile" in their description of the pastels? I fear it might give people a wrong idea of just how sturdy the long lasting the pastel medium truly is.
