GLAZING DEMONSTRATION

Employing glazing techniques with oil paint is an excellent way to achieve brilliant depth and luminosity of color in your work. There are also approaches to glazing which can give us great freedom to experiment with color.

In this glazing demo I’ll be showing various ways in which artists can use glazing with oils in their work; from a very traditional approach over a grissaile to other ways in which glazing can be used to fine tune and finesse a work.

These are excellent techniques to add to our repertoire of paint handling skills.
