The primary use of glazing in the past was to be able to create more intense (chromatic) colors due to the unavailability of a wide range of pigments, such as those available today.

Marvin, I think that when you compare the colors produced by glazing to modern opaque pigment, it is sort of like comparing the color of stained glass to construction paper.

I don't think that the glowing effects you speak of have very much to do with glazing.

And I think that glazing (and scumbling) has everything to do with the luminosity and that "glowing effect" that I get in my work. I am also sure that there are other valid ways of "getting that glow" but so far, they haven't worked for me.
