I use burnt umber a lot, which is what I used for this painting. I've used lots of other colors too, and I think just about anything can work, depending on the painting and the effect you want. Play around with it - have fun!Carol Marinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00855632528757673268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34529982.post-32848414390087307452014-03-13T08:24:41.431-07:002014-03-13T08:24:41.431-07:00I especially love how the base coat of the canvas ...I especially love how the base coat of the canvas is a character in her world. Can you share about how you prepare and base coat a canvas? Do you use acrylic or oil? What colors can you use as a base coat? Does anything go or is this peachy tone the best? I see this peachy tone under alot of my favorite art. I was wondering if this was a common technique, or do artists get to choose based on the painting subject and their style?
