It was interesting to me that in his April workshop, Bill Whitaker noted that some of the painters whose set-palettes are complex re-creations of a full Munsell scale were at first pastellists . . . the method of working suggests the comfort with a really extensive set-palette.

Personally, I think it's efficient to "set" a limited palette for the task at hand, and it will vary depending on the details of the subject.

Color is "personal" and so subjective, the "tricks" of referred color, relative hues, etc., etc. are infinite, and play a part in each individual's development of color in their work. Look over these color lists, they don't vary much . . .
