I'm following this with much interest. I recently stretched raw unprimed linen, coated it with Gamblin's PVA size and then put a coat of Holbein Underpainting White (a lead white). I'm letting it sit for a month before I start work on this. I wouldn't use the Holbein product again, largely because it's so expensive, rougly akin to waxing your car with Chanel skin cream. (Not that I have any.)
I've since been told that Studio Products makes a good lead oil primer. Has anybody here tried it?
