Glazes




Dear Joan,

Thank you for your kind words and asphaltum info.

A glaze is just a translucent color + a lot of medium (I use Liquin). This is scumbled over a dry surface and it will gently alter the color beneath.

For example, some translucent colors I glaze with are burnt sienna, raw umber, prussian blue, alizarin crimson, (etc.)....as opposed to heavily pigmented and opaque colors like yellow ochre, Indian red and titanium white.

Hope this helps...it is really verrrrry simple!
