I plan to begin experimenting with acrylic paint and glazing techniques.
On the Explore Acrylic Painting site, I discovered this great post on Acrylic Glazing - A Match Made in Heaven. Here's are a couple of points from the post that caught my interest:
- "The beauty of glazing is that you can alter hues in very subtle ways. You can increase the drama of a gradation of colour, and best of all, you can create a lovely brightness that's difficult to achieve without glazing."
- "The wonderful thing about using this process with acrylics, and acrylic mediums, is that you can re-apply another glaze (depending on the weather) in about 20 minutes. No more waiting for weeks. First glaze not quite right? No worries. Add a second layer after 20 minutes have past."
Read the complete post for more glazing tips. Then take some time to poke around the site for more valuable information on acrylic painting.
