There is a tendency to be reluctant to even want to know what is behind a closed door...metaphorically speaking. However, some of the best things can happen when you allow your desires to open the door.
Placing a bit of color randomly along an edge can give the illusion that there is another layer of color underneath. It is far more interesting than simply painting in a solid block of color. Try it and see what you think.
If you want to do some touching up with soft pastels, you will have better success brushing on a coat of Liquitex Clear Gesso. (It adds "tooth" to the surface.) I've mentioned this before, but just in case you've just "tuned in"I'm saying it again. The burnt sienna and black charcoal powder helped transform a "hot mess" underneath. Do you have some "hot messes" that need repair? Try some soft pastels.
