Still-life Under-painting

I decided to do something different this time for the under-painting for this still-life. Typically, I use a glaze of burnt sienna and medium, and then go in with burnt umber for darks. After that, I pull out some lights with a little solvent. This time, I went with a glaze of cerulean blue and medium, then using straight cerulean blue for the darks and pulling out some lights with solvent. The still-life has a lot of cool colors, and a cool light on it, so this seemed more appropriate.
