I'm a new painter and I started mixing colors this way instinctively. I also sometimes paint over an entire dry acrylic painting with white paint and water, then scrub it off quickly with a paper towel to mute the colors even more.
For glazing I have been using a Resene product called Paint Effects which seems to be just a binder with no pigment. It is quite fluid but has more body than water or air brush medium and dries matt. I mix it with acrylic paint for transparent layers that are a little thicker than the usual glaze - I can add 4 or 5 layers that will still show. I was using acrylic medium but the only fluid one I could get was glossy which wasn't what I wanted. Just in case anyone is interested 🙂 Good video, very useful about the colour mixing.
This is my first viewing of this particular video for me Judy but still so relevant! I am still learning about colour mixing (very much a novice in this area lol - I am primarily self taught bar some portfolio courses and community projects). This is a great tutorial Judy and I will definitely save it and watch it again. So thank you for posting ❤
So beautiful. I love to use glazes and I am going to try out this thick and thin technique in my next painting. Thanks for making this. You have a lovely voice 🥬
Wow that was super helpful! Had just started to learn about that colour mixing trick which has transformed my paintings (im a newbie lol!) but was great to learn about yhe glazing idea, i love it. Teally interesting to do these layers, helps level up a painting for sure! New subscriber, cant wait to watch more!!
Fantastic video. So informative! Please can you tell me about the ‘color mixer’ brush and the upright tool you use for making lines? I’ve tried to use a ruler for those straight edges and it is seriously messy. Thank you so much for your instruction and inspiration Judy.
The Colour Shaper is like a brush but it has a rubber edge rather than bristles - great for moving the paint around. A painters straight edge is what I use for the lines - available at hardware stores or paint shops.
I love watching you making this lovely piece . Could you name the paint colors please ? You mentioned Azo & Yellow Umbrella, Paynes Gray & white . What are the blue paints you're using ? I love that sort of sky/light blue or is it teal ??
Thank you for this great video Judy. I am fairly new to mediums and was wondering do you have a video or pdf on the purposes of the different mediums i:e can you use a pouring medium or the difference between that and a glazing medium?
Great tutorial, Judy. I have been wondering about airbrush medium. It worked well here and was preferable to watering-down glazing medium. Do you think it could be used to mimic inks? Trying to not purchase too many supplies. Thanks for this video.

I just tried this exercise and what a big mess it came to !!! I'm having so much trouble just mixing the colors on my palette without creating a big mess quickly of all the colors mixing together & then I don't have the room to keep mixing new colors without the others getting in the way . Do you clean your palette knife between the mixing ? Im getting blobs & my piece did not come out muted & light at all! Plus the paint dried very quickly on my palette although I had wet paper towels under it . I am so frustrated & feel like I can't get it . I used the exact colors you used . I guess that's the difference between an experienced, talented artist & me 😢 Any tutorials on slowly just mixing on a palette would help me so much. It looks so easy when you do it . I feel like such a failure ...
After a few minutes i realised you were using a water based paint, like acrylic. I use oils so glazing using a water base is not suitable. I think you should change your title to explain what medium you are using.

I love those colours. I'm going to have to watch this over again and make sure I follow the rule. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Cheers!

Phenomenal skills!
Just to add a little more to my last comment. I really like these subtle colours but I also like the pop of the pure pale yellow.
Very helpful video, thank you!

What were your paint colors you used from the tube for mixing please?
Thank you for this great video Judy. I am fairly new to mediums and was wondering do you have a video or pdf on the purposes of the different mediums i:e can you use a pouring medium or the difference between that and a glazing medium?
Go to the Golden website and you'll see they have all that covered for you.
Great tutorial, Judy. I have been wondering about airbrush medium. It worked well here and was preferable to watering-down glazing medium. Do you think it could be used to mimic inks? Trying to not purchase too many supplies. Thanks for this video.
Well you can add pigment to it so I think it's worth experimenting.
@@judywoodsart why did you switch to an airbrush medium rather than water?
@@senndangobecause water will thin down the polymer that binds the pigment. So you can opt to use a thinner version of the same polymer whiout compromising the paint structure
Up to your usual high standard of teaching by showing.
Also what is the difference in the airbrush medium vs glazing medium if using it for glazing purposes?
Airbrush medium is thinner, runnier.

OH no!! Don't be downhearted - you'll get there. I'll do a video just for you on how I mix colours and use my palette. Stay tuned!
Hi Judy. Does your palette dry out? No lid.
I do have a lid.
