Stockbridge 6 - stage 3

I painted a wash of orange thinned with Liquin and tupentine on the background with a rag as well as some thinned "black" (a mix of Alizarin Crimson, Dioxazine Purple and Permanent Sap Green) into the bottom and edges of picture. A second layer of "black" was painted onto the figure and the underpainting for the arm and face is now finished. I want an incredible deep and varied red for the background to be the star of the picture, the figure will be more low-key and secondary.
