You refer to "palette" as your inventory. True. In painting, we think of a palette as a board upon which we mix colors. Sometimes my palette is actually my hand.

I use soft pastel. Have you ever tried using Flexible Fabric Bandaids on your fingertips, and use them as a blender? I sometimes apply the pastel to the bandaid then to the drawing, as indirect application. Other times, I apply directly a heavy load of color and use the fabric bandaid as a blender. It is an innovation that completely changed my style.
