Painting the Imprimatura

If you want a lot more information on these Old Master painting techniques, go to www.damianosbo...
Technically, this painting stage should be called a brunaille, as I'm painting the underpainting in shades of brown. I've already toned my canvas (imprimatura usually) and then done a charcoal drawing ON TOP of that.
So if you want to know a lot more about old masters oil painting techniques, check out the link above.
Here is the second part of my figure painting titled 'Transformation', where I paint the imprimatura layer with burnt umber oil paint, a bit of linseed oil and gum turpentine medium, and a trusty hogshair filbert brush.
I kept this video relatively short, so please check out my website if you would like to learn more stuff:

I use final fixative spray to prevent the graphite or charcoal to bleed thru the paint
