This is a great little start. I`m going on to an oil based canvas. An expensive one from Bird and Davies in London and have lightly prepared the ground in Raw Umber but very little so it`s just off white. The canvas has a superb tooth to it . It has to dry now for the second sitting. These are easy to screw up  so it has to be done patiently the beauty of it is the oil on the fresh canvas so if you make a mistake at this stage you have to rub it off with turps and it just gets messy and looses the freshness.
