After listening to a podcast with Michael Oberman I followed his suggestion of mixing color on the palette then putting that color on the canvas with the palette knife; then moving the paint just laid down with a brush. This puts more paint down in a more painterly fashion and the under layer is not as disturbed as much as with a brush.
