In Reply to: Verdaccio posted by Jack on 10/16/00 at 2:27 PM:

: I understand there is a technique (called "verdaccio") of underpainting flesh tones with a grey-green tone. Does anyone have experience with this technique? If so, could you explain it to me in a little more detail? Thanks.

Yes. I use it when painting portraits of women with pale skin. It helps produce a more porcelain skin look...very lively looking. I tend to go for a very green underpainting rather than the greyish, more grisaille underpainting. The green under a standard portrait palette creates a nice depth.
