The pastels, produced over the last twenty years, comprise Post's largest body of work.
She says, 'Working with soft pastel sticks is a natural extension of my fingers into the
realm of pure pigment. I am much more enamored of the sticks as they wear down to tiny stubs
of color, working together with my hands in a rhythm of sweeping, smearing and staccato motions.
Even when applying oil paints, I'll often put the paintbrush aside - leaving fingerprints,
scratches and the mark of my hand in the pools of color on the canvas.'
