Day three of our painting workshop is dedicated to painting hunting hounds! A couple pigments that are very helpful painting hounds are transparent red oxide (pr102) from Winsor and Newton, green gold (py129) grom Gamblin and Quin violet (pv19) also from Gamblin. Start with your three transparent colors and keep balancing until you get your composition correct. The red, yellow and purple will mix easily to draw and mass in your hounds. When you add white in stage 2, start mixing these colors with titanium-zinc. If the painting does not feel too wet from changing your mind too many times, add titanium white into stage three highlights. If your painting is too wet, let it rest one or two days before mixing your top highlights. You may want your Indian yellow (py89) Gamblin to heat up your rusts further but do test our your green gold first. Hansa yellow medium (py74) and or deep (py75) from Gamblin can also be helpful.
Please print our what you would like to work with since my printer is still not very happy. I am loading the color photo with the canvas size described in the alt tag. Besides the color reference photo there is a greyscale value and a posterized value (3 images per comosition). If you can not print text me on my cell and I will see if I can get some made in Middleburg before class.
