The "atmosphere" of unifying glazes
I often do a warm unifying glaze inbetween layers in a painting in order to "pull it all together" as I work. I seldom do this as the final finish because it would destroy the contrast between my warm and cool colors.
Mostly I use raw umber for my glazes and it is mixed with enough Liquin to become transparent.
This technique gives my work "lots of 'old masterish' atmosphere."
