using Palette Grey for under painting (spoiler - it's a chicken)


 I mentioned palette grey last time and how to make it.  Here's my first go at using it and I absolutely love it. 

The canvas has black gesso on it for some reason I can't remember.  

Anyway, I'm blocking in the values and making some chickens happen.  I don't know if there's a spoiler tag and as the true title of this painting isn't safe for all ages, I'll give the alternate title: peeping male chicken


Spoilers: we won't see this again for months - but it is my favorite technique so far.
