Description: Sometimes I will start a painting and after some reflection decide that I don't want to move forward with it after all. The underpainting here is thin and has been well dried for a month or so. The canvas its-self is a very fine and expensive lead oil ground portrait linen- which is why I want to save it.
This is what I do:
1️⃣ Start with some white and raw umber.
2️⃣ Mix to desired value.
3️⃣ Spread over the canvas with a palette knife and then riling it in with a sturdy paper towel.
4️⃣ I only recommend this for a canvas that has an underpainting/first pass on it. Too many paint layers and it could get a bit risky.
I you have any questions about my materials try the FAQ's post on my Patreon page: patreon.com/posts/frequently-asked-37008290
