Another Word about Glazing

There is another option if you aren’t interested in making your own glaze for oil paintings. Liquin is a glaze that can be purchased at many craft stores and is often used.

When applying the glaze, a brush can be used. Sometimes a stiff brush called a stippling brush is used to even out the glaze. For a softer or thinner application, a rag or toe of an old sock filled with cotton can be used to dab on the glaze and to soften the edges.

I came across this quote from a non-glazer: If you hear a voice within you say, “you can’t paint,” then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced”.  …Vincent van Gogh
