Underpainting

Genre: Television

Year Published: 1957

Creator: KETC St. Louis Siegfried Reinhardt Vincent Park J. Joseph Leonard Carl Johnson

Format: 16mm

Description: After putting the outline of his main figure on the canvas, Painter Reinhardt does something which non-artists might consider astonishing: he begins to cover the figure with the “underpainting.” But as he talks and explains what he is doing, another technique of the artist becomes clear. With this part of the job done, the audience is left to await the next step in the making of a painting.
