This DVD will show you how to create an underpainting in oils with enough white in it so that when the transparent glaze colors are painted on top of it, the glaze colors will glow with light. I love this technique for several reasons, but the qualities that I love most about it are the luminosity and beauty of the colors. Some of the topics that are presented include: Using mop brushes to smooth out your paint Mixing colors for the underpainting Brush techniques for blending the paint Color choices for glazing How to apply glazes for maximum luminosity Confidently building the dark areas of a painting Creating the illusion of shine and reflections --Cover.
