dj*, I don't know how this looks on your monitor or in real time, but it looks great on mine. I love what the blue does to the tone of the painting and the way you let it show through in places. Your brushstrokes are distinct and authoritative and the painting works beautifully. And what did you mean by "wiped lights back"? I use an ultramarine blue underpainting, but it's not really a tonal study but more of a blocking in, so I'm interested in any new ways of dealing with this.

Looking forward to more of these!

Leslie
