The under painting is a mixture of burnt sienna with a fair amount of 50/50 liquin and linseed oil. The paint is brushed over the entire panel then removed from the lighter areas. This is not a great photo, but sometimes this stage alone could pass for a finished painting, and I'm telling ya', the wiping away process is key- far more important than you might imagine.
