My glaze dried too dull

[Richard Bingham]

Thank you, Michele. I am especially interested in materials and techniques, and realize the pitfalls of being pontifical. The possibilities of technique are so broad and the materials so varied, many methods and the materials they employ are interchangeable, supplying latitude for the accommodation of personal preferences. Basics of "sound" painting are relatively simple otherwise. It's my intention to be helpful, not to insist on my own preferences.
