“AUTUMN DREAMING” – UNDERPAINTING
Monday, 5/26/08 – 22″x28″ Original Oil on Fine Belgian Linen – All my colors have been mixed with turpentine and MG Underpainting White. I have used various sizes of bristle brushes to make a color sketch of the scene. Sky: Thalo Blue, Thalo Green with a touch of Yellow Ochre. Trees and Chamisa: Various shades of Cadmium Yello and Yellow Ochre — to make shadows, add a little bit of Diox. Purple or Cobalt Violet to yellows. The Road: Various mixtures of Burnt Sienna, Yellow Ochre, Rose Grey, Cadmium Yellow. This underpainting has dried for about ten days — I will begin to put the glazes in tomorrow. Stay Tuned!!!
