When should you add glazing to your landscape painting? Personally, when I have found that I am not satisfied with the look of a painting where sections of it look lackluster, and my colors are not piercing through – that’s when I resort to glazing to increase my expressionism.

Where did the problem originate from? Most likely I got carried away with using too much turpentine as a medium which, in my eyes, ruined it. We all recognize this emotion… Of course, it is just as possible I was having was really a dreadful day an my creative efforts entirely went wide of the mark.

Depending upon your artistic eye and the particular painting, many artists consider glazing – the adding of transparent color layers – a crucial part of their work.

We have all experienced glass and the way the sun filters through it. Well, this is what the effects of glazing are like. It can produce a chilled look or result in additional warmth. So as soon as your original coating of paint is dried out, add a new light coating of color on top. This is valuable tip when doing landscape paintings.

NOTE: Nobody should have to cope with the troubles of the paint shades all running together. I cannot highlight enough the significance of letting your handiwork dry out first, then you can add those transparent colors on top.

If you want to harmonize your work, bring more depth to it, glazing is great. Applied correctly, it is splendid way for making a sense of open space and distance. Glazing can add a whole new dimension to your completed work.

Glazing is not always easy. It takes plenty of practice with your colors to reach a satisfactory result. You just have to keep trying to reach your goal as you become a better artist.

What if you try putting a very deep purple on top of a pale yellow – this will give you an idea of the strength of color that can actually be obtained. Keep experimenting until you are pleased with the completed result.

There are certain rules to remember when you glaze. An absolute must is to not mix any white paint together with the color you want to glaze with. Employ oil along with the color and stroke it on lightly.

If you are looking for strong, vivid special effects, get out your palette. Experiment with putting, for instance, a very hot red on a a good deal weaker hue and observe what results. After that, you may well round it off together with a coat of gel, if that is your preference.
