Let us not forget, also, that white in pigment is vastly different from white in the spectrum. In the early days of motion pictures when they used arc lighting, white was painted on sets in either pale pink or green. True white paint would have been blinding. When they switched to incandescent lights in the late 20s, white could be used. Scenic designer, Cedric Gibbons, became famous for what became known in the movie industry as the BWS or Big White Set. <br />Cheers,<br />StephanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-83998682762242888002009-08-21T15:36:43.172-04:002009-08-21T15:36:43.172-04:00Love your little 3 cakes watercolors...lovely colo...Love your little 3 cakes watercolors...lovely colorful shadows.

I try to remember that when you go to the paint store and look at paint chips there are tons of "whites" to choose from. I think they must be just really pale pastels.
