Thank you as didn’t know better to use “transparent”, staining colors instead of more opaque! Now black line practice test!

@appleknocker56 25 күн бұрын

I might have this backwards? Would you put the “staining but transparent color” glazed over the bottom like you did with the orange? Took me awhile to know which colors were both and finding that information wasn’t easy but feel glazing proper way get much better results!

Yesterday I told a friend of mine that glazing was the watercolour technic that actually scared me the most especially when it comes to mid values and darks in landscapes, after the first light wash. It's funny you came out with a video on glazing while I'm struggling with it, that's telepathy 😄

You gotta try transparent acrylic-no worries the under layer can mix with the glazing ,downside-they are expensive and can damage natural hair brushes.

@pattycyr8662 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for demonstrating this so clearly - much appreciated. Also, can the terms laying and glazing be used interchangably regarding watercolor? I've heard some artists use them that way but others say layering is not exactly the same as glazing in watercolor. Thanks very much.

@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber Жыл бұрын

mmm. There's a slight difference. Layering just means putting one lot of paint on top of another. Glazing is specifically the practice of putting transparent layers over with the intention of changing the underneath colour, from warm to cool for example, or from bright to muted etc

Where does it say on paint tubes that a colour is transparent?.

@IntheStudiowithMicheleWebber 29 күн бұрын

It doesn't always, but it's usually on the manufacturer's website. The best way is to swatch. Draw a thick line in permanent black liner pen, paint your swatch across and see how clear it looks after the paint has dried.

I can’t remember the man’s name (older) and last name begins with a K who does goes into depth (in a book) about glazing with staining watercolors and by chance do you know his name? Tyvm. Trying to see now which of mine is which as know have done opposite.
