A No Fail Way to Start a Pastel Painting

Do you ever freeze in front of a blank canvas or piece of paper? How do you get past this fear and start painitng? In this video I share my NO FAIL approach to starting and finishing a pastel painting. It is based on doing a value thumbnail and using this thumbnail to do a simple block in or underpainting. Join me as I use this method to paint a field of lavender!
