My paintings are oil on canvas. I cover the white gesso surface with a thin, gestural underpainting of Burnt Sienna. When this has dried, I mix two close contrasting colors. I now build the parallel lines and their background with a # 2 filbert brush. In places, fragments of reddish underpainting show through.
