[Hi Thomasin
I don't realy do a soft pastel,but something harder(with a square section). I do it in half an hour, that helps me to
get a quicker chromatic balance ,to avoid the blankness of the canvas and find a tone colour nearer reality.
I don't know a better way to start oil painting without waiting for the turpentine first level.
Bye
Adriano
