A little more progress...underpainting
Just a little more progress. Please forgive the horizontal streaking and any blooming or "ghosting" obvious in this image. I'm ready to pitch my ancient scanner. A little more value range is required in the subjects left sleeve. The forest floor will show more highlighted and detailed leaves. I may have a little too much green in the shadowed right wrist.
Raffaele...it you happen to catch this, I was wondering what you meant by laying in the glazed colour on the horizontal?

Thanks TeAnne...
FioreQ...Believe it or not, I'm using the Genesis Heat-Set Oils for this painting. Some have said these paints are really "themoplastics". This is my first attempt at doing an underpainting of which I will glaze in the colour when I'm finished. I became intrigued to at least attempt an underpainting after becoming excited about Verdaccio and Raffaele's teachings on the Grasaille(sp?) and verdaccio over in the "oil painting" forum. You get a chance check out what they have to say over there.

WOW!!
This is looking good David!!!!! Hey! I was in your area not too long ago. (Annapolis) We ate at a place called "Mike's" for seafood. I ended up in the emergency room with an allergic reaction to soft shell crab! *laugh* what a way to start the vacation.
I can't wait to see the glazed version on this painting...you have a great underpainting going here.

Re: WOW!!
Bravo! Great begining! I read the whole thing about "grisaille" on the oil painting forum. I was hoping to catch the next step. Well please show us how it turns out.
 It can only be great, you have been quite consistant in your other paintings.
See you soon I hope.

Hi Fagan...
So sorry to hear about your seafood experience. I hope the rest of your vacation went better. Annapolis is a very nice area in my opinion. I hope I finish this thing before leaving for Utah next month. We'll see...

Hello Ladysue...
Thanks. There is a wealth of info going on over there...don't you think? A few individuals in that forum have been so instrumental in helping me to understand the underpainting approach. I really enjoy this technique. I'll post again as more is completed.
