Hi Arlene,

I think the board was covered / underpainted in crimson with a touch of ultramarine. But I'm not too sure now as I experiment with different tonal backgrounds. The pallete was crimson, ultramarine, cadmium yellow light and titaneum white. I do remember there being another, (failed),painting beneath which I painted over.

Thanks for liking the picture by the way!

Mike what did you underpaint with?  Love the look!  I have a painting I want to start with fog over water and can't decide what color to underpaint with.

Ouch! I can feel the cold. Very atmospheric!
