Michael, for your verdaccio technique do you actually use some green in it or mix your own greens? Or does it just depend? I often use umber plus yellow ochre varying how much of each. Maybe add a little yellow lt.
I love your work and must admit that I have not started a portrait with the greenish underpainting. Is this actually a toned board with greenish hue? Or do you begin your painting with the greenish hue
Thanks in advance.
