I paint with a white lead which I grind myself, along with a few other home-made colors. I'm doing almost all my current paintings, large or small, on smooth panels.
Since I'm working with white lead, I no longer paint on a toned ground, but on a white ground to prevent the painting from darkening as it ages. White lead has a tendency to become more transparent with time and the ground can eventually influence the tone of the painting.
