Before I start with the first wash of oil, I do a last thin white gesso layer on it. Is this Ok, or not? I think it is better than fixing the sketch with a spray and it covers the dark lines more. Secondly, if I start (caused by unidentified interstellar radiation) totally wrong with pencil, how can I prevent the "rising up" of the graphite? Thanks in advance. Leslie
