    I’ve just completed the underpainting on Carol & Jerry’s portrait. I skipped posting WIP #3 as I sent that one along to my client and it was just half the underpainting (I finished Carol late yesterday).

    My palette, in case you’re curious, is a small one. French ultramarine, yellow ochre, raw umber, magenta, white, sap green, indigo and cerulean blue. I’ve learned a lot about creating skin tones over the last few years, and the more people I paint, the more I learn.

    (I am admittedly kinda happy that Jerry’s face is a bit furry.)
