Hi Michael -
Just finished two verdaccio underpaintings using the 9-value mixtures of MB + COG that you recommended in another post. It was a great exercise; building tonal accuracy in the intitial step makes a lot of sense to me.
Anyway, I'm going to try the academic mixtures you suggest in this post to carry the exercises further. I'll post attachments when I get to that stage.
I expected the underpainting to dry faster than it has because of the flake white, but I'm pleased that I've been able to work wet-on-wet on the more problematic one for three days and counting...
Discussion on the forum seems to go in spurts; it's definitely NOT that no one is interested in the topic you posted.
Or maybe not many beginners are using the academic approach.
