Titian's Process

Ok I think I’m on the right track now, after this dries I will continue to make corrections in the drawing while building up the painting with color from Titian’s palette.

Titian’s Palette for the first and third sitting: white lead ( flake white), yellow ochre light, burnt sienna, burnt umber, Ivory black.

Second sitting: white lead, Naples yellow, French Vermillion light, alizarin crimson, burnt umber, ivory black.

Fourth sitting: is the same as the second with the addition of Chrome yellow, Prussian blue, ultramarine blue.

Fifth and sixth sittings : white lead, yellow ocher light, French Vermillion light, alizarin crimson, burnt umber, ivory black.

As you can see this is a long process.
