Shinrin Taisha - stage 2


 This is the preliminary tonal underpainting which I will finish tomorrow. I improvised the background trees first and then painted the rest afterwards. It's a bit messy at the moment but it will sort itself out soon with the lights in the shrine and the lantern at left as the lightest part of the picture.

Colours used: Burnt Sienna and Winsor Violet with the colour biased towards the violet as the painting will be in muted blue/greens mainly.
