The bust, save for the flesh and the beard, is now undercoated!
Two things about this bust: One, your palette--to say nothing of your canvas!--is rather limited, so colour, or rather, tone, selection should not be undertaken in a cavalier fashion.
Two, the design of the bust will dictate your approach. This is definitely an inside>>out project! Flexibility and adaptability will carry the day!!
FOLLOW-UP. . . I have decided to "undercoat" the beard in oils. This will afford me the opportu- nity to glaze the beard to maximize the depth and tonal shifts. More to follow. . .
