GLAZING - Old Masters Secrets and Modern Techniques - Oil Painting Tutorial

maybe your lesson would be useful if you didn't talk so much but just demonstrate the technique

Amazing

Nobody has explained it better than you! Thank you!

I have heard that when you glaze you never add the same or similar color over one another, for example red over pink. But I don't understand how the old masters managed to do 30 even 40 layers. Did they add different colors for every layer?

great info + Alba Whiteman I just wanted to add that by using your fingers you also leave some of your own body oil, which is not bad just consider how fast you work how intensive your work using fingers is and if you are changing your structure and the main brushstrokes (food for thought)

thank you, I didn't understand the first part about the light theory but I appreciate the explanation while you demonstrating.

Super ❤️

Excellent. Thank you

Theory galore

Thank you so much!

So can I just use white spirit as a medium for glazing? Sorry all the mediums in oil painting confuse me a lot

Ur the best ❤️❤️❤️

What an excellent explanation! Thank you very much!

I used to do airbrush product illustration full time freelance, also portraits, this looks like a "cousin" to what I did . . .

THANK YOU SO MUCH! this technique solved my problem!

My portrait turned out too bright....this simple technique allows me to easily darken everything without repainting

ÈXCELLENT AND THOROUGH PRESENTATION. CONTINUED GOOD LUCK! THANK YOU - OLD TIMER

The brushwork in the background is too prominent. It is distracting from the portrait

This is the best galzing video I have ever seen :)

Fantastic demonstration. So well presented! And so generous of you to provide. Hope to use it well!

Being on a limited budget, I can not afford to join your much deserved Patreon page... I love painting so very much, but I definitely need help learning how to improve it... so, I wish to thank you from the bottom of my heart for freely sharing instructions with us.
God bless.

A great lesson!!!

How do you know when glazing would be the best option? Do you have a glazing recipe that uses liquin?

Great video! The best one I’ve seen on explaining glazing!

😳😲🧐👍🏻

Amazing demo, love it, thank you

Great tutorial - Will revisit often .

Thank you so much for this lessons! you are amazingly talented and your explanations are so easy to catch. I am self-taught painter if i can say :D and i would like an advice as i am using water mixable oils is glazing same rules for this type of colors? How to mix and get more skin tone colors my always end up to be somehow orange look like :/ i am failing in getting the right values and tone as i haven't study art. Thank you so much! Following you!!

i feel like this is cheating in a way lmao. its much harder and challenging to achieve that look with regular paint. you would have to be very talented for that

Very helpful, thank you.

Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing knowledge ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

really great video, its one thing to have all the artistic knowledge, technique and experience that you do and its another thing to translate it to beginners who may be painting very different scenes to you. you make the knowledge transferrable by anticipating problems the viewer may run into (what if you want to add more paint, what if you want to start again). i can tell youre a really conscientious communicator, even just from the way you have to paint from the left to not get in the way of the camera

Great video, really informative.
You mention that we should try and avoid using white when glazing, but what if we want to glaze pastel shades, pink, mint blue/green etc? Cheers

Thank you! I have a question: I have a dark blue gray lake, and want it to be more brown- it was a brown water lake that I am copying. (From memory, don’t have a photo, but some come close). What would be a good transparent to use? Note: I had it a teal-greenish blue originally, glazed with Transparent yellow oxide and the lake turned way to green- it looked like grass! Haha- so, I wiped it, and I repainted a darker, neutral gray blue- but still want a brownish color. I just don’t know what Transparent color has brown, and not to red or yellow. Thank you so much! Watching all your videos, and hope to buy the coarse very soon. Blessings.

I got started painting miniatures with oils, but your video was educational and taught me a lot regardless. Thank you.

well done, thanks for making the effort to produce the video

💛💛

Fantastic. Good lesson. Thank you.

very good but nxt time leave out the music

at 15.36, you waited until the drying of the sap green before glazing with the yellow, right? I'm trying to understand the process. I'm a watercolorist.

How dark is too dark on a portrait in lit with day light.

How does this differ from painting thin over fat rather than the general rule of fat over lean?

How do you keep your paints fresh on the palette in between sessions? Do you just throw out the unused paint?

Thank you so very much!

Best glazing video I've seen! Thank you.

Just a question for anyone: Would tiny bit of water would work too for glazing?? As long as it’s not so much water in the brush, just want to confirm cause I don’t want to spend money on just a bottle of glaze

Very interesting but ruined by choice of music and often insistent drumming. Do you really need any music?

Thank you for the tutorial
