A Change of Tactics Might Make A Difference

Rather than burn the learning portraits in my wood stove, I might take a different approach to them. 

Back in the day when Rome was trying to conquer to world but had to stop when they ran into the Celts, they changed their tactics, made use of the fledgling religion that was Christianity, and picked up where they had left off in conquering the world. 

Maybe if I take a page from their book I can conquer these portraits yet. 

What if, since my first approach only worked up to a point, I just go a different route, choose a different method, and select a new medium with which to accomplish my goal? 

The foundation is already laid, so to speak; maybe, like the three little pigs, I need to switch from straw to brick. 

Interpret that as a query about using paint over the pastels already in place. 

Since I don't have anything to lose, I figure it might be worth a try. 

But not right this very minute as I have to go finish Sass' eyes.
