This was stupidly good. It was a more scientific approach to glazing that I haven’t seen anywhere else. Like this was so good I’m kinda amazed this is the first time I’m coming across something like this. Like damn. Subbed!

That gemstone example was so helpful! I've been trying to find good glazing tutorials forever and this helped a ton, didn't think to start with a colored base instead of an achromatic base

Thanks! There really are some amazing videos out there on applying glazing, but I want to show it distilled down to the bare-bone basics so that artists can build their technique from a foundation. Glad you found it helpful, Cheers! 😃

Thank you for sharing the demo. It's very interesting to see how different the glazing results turn out to be based on the underlying base tone. I never really understood glazing, it's very tricky IMO. The complementary really adds so much depth to the gem vs. value 1-10. Glazing is pretty important for acrylic painters as the paint itself dries so much faster than traditional oil so glazing is a must if you want to achieve certain effects.

Thanks, glad you found the demo helpful! Oh very much agree! There's some wonderful FX that just can't quite be done effectively with wet into wet painting, especially with the dry time of acrylics.

best way to do glazing is applying ink + glaze medium (droplets) with an airbrush, you can even do metalic glazes which are mostly impossible with pigments and brushes
@leedavis-art
Жыл бұрын
Airbrush medium is great! I use it in lieu of water sometimes. It has its pros and cons like any medium and I'll be touching on it in an upcoming video along side other acrylic mediums. While this channel is geared towards traditional methods of oil and acrylic paint with a brush/palette knife, I've seen amazing work done by other artists with an airbrush and/or spray-cans! 😎👍 Cheers!

@@leedavis-art yeah that's true, although when I want to reach a higher saturation level, I apply the base with brushes, for example, in my case, pyrrole red, and then glaze with a more saturated pyrrole red in the form of ink with the airbrush, if I want to go even more saturated, I add a small touch of glazed fluorescent red, there's nothing redder than that lol

Enjoyed this video! Would you use a white glaze to create a fog effect?
@leedavis-art
Жыл бұрын
Sure! Scumbling is what that's called when you're using opaque paint. Using a stiff-bristle brush one grabs a little paint and rubs a very thin layer of paint over an area. The great thing about the scumbling technique is you can pretty much use any paint, transparent through opaque, depending on the desired effect. White paint may still be too high in value for the application of fog or mist, consider a neutral grey (opaque white with other colors to drop the value) and adding a hint of warm or cool color to keep the color harmony of the painting consistent. 😎👍

How would you glaze with water mixable oils?
@leedavis-art
Жыл бұрын
Water mixable (water-soluble oils / water-miscible oils, same thing) are oil paints that can be diluted and cleaned with water rather than solvents. You wouldn't want to use water as a medium in this case. They're still oil paints so still treat them as such when painting. Save the water for clean up. Manufacturers also make water mixable mediums like water-soluble linseed oil, fast dry, etc. … but you can use regular oil mediums too!

I thought the idea of glazing was to subtly change the underlaying colour being glazed.Surely by dramatically changing all the underlaying colours to green he has not glazed at all !
@leedavis-art

Glazing is simply the technique of applying transparent paint over dried opaque paints. You can get as subtle or extreme as you like. For instance, you could add a slight blush to the cheeks on the face of a model or figure. Or, you could change a ruby gemstone to an emerald. It's all an artistic choice utilizing the technique! 😉

Hmmm yea your split complementary, triadic and tetradic demos have a bit of a misunderstanding. The way you’ve done them are basically a monochromatic color scheme. I’m not sure if you understand what the schemes are supposed to be or just tried to explain the idea behind how you chose the color.

Oh please don't confuse this for a color theory video - it most definitely isn't 😅! The video is specifically on basic glazing techniques for oil and acrylic painters. While yes I used a color wheel to choose colors for my method-of-choice and brevity, truthfully any assortment of hues may work to show different effects one can do with glazing. Artists certainly should choose their own method of picking colors in their studies when exploring a pigment for glazing and mixing. Hope that helps clear things up, cheers!

@@leedavis-art I know it’s a glazing video, it’s just that when you say “triadic color scheme” one expects the subject, in this case these jewels, to have the triad albeit a dominant and two subordinate colors. It would make for an interesting display of glazing over a jewel that is multicolored. I was just wondering why you called them that if you just decided to choose one color (it is possible you used the rest to create the various tones and desaturate the main color per jewel of course).

@@Hadoken. Thanks, no worries at all! I'll make sure to be clearer on terminology in future videos. And you're not wrong that a gem could be glazed into a full triadic color scheme. In this case a monochromatic grey gem glazed with the phthalo green and say … diox purple and transparent orange. It *would* make for a really great gemstone actually. 🤔 Cheers!
