underpainting, cont'd


I found a window of time to work on my painting, so I've now done the full colour underpainting. Right now the colours are looking mostly right but are somewhat flat and texturally unremarkable, so the next stage will involve another layer of colour, using finer brushes and more attention to detail. Basically cleaning up some of the edges and refining. I'm thinking that mixing in some textured impasto paste will add liveliness to the surface too. Let's see what happens! :)
