This young goat was so very white, I used pure white as the lightest color, something I rarely do.
I'll be teaching my primer underpainting technique at my upcoming workshop in Ulysses, KS, April 5-7. There are a couple of spaces left - it's not too late to join us! See my workshop page for info.
Enjoy Cauliflower's progression pics below!

What do you use as your underpainting Rita? Your animals and all your art is stunning. Love the colors!
ReplyDeleteThanks Bonnie! I use Art Spectrum pastel primer (terra cotta) over Golden Fine Pumice Gel that has Quinacridone gold acrylic color added. The gold is transparent, so sometimes I'll add a second layer to darken some areas of gold, then also will skumble or dry-brush the terra cotta primer over areas, to create more tones.
