Copying Other Artists and What it Can Teach You

Hello Friends
This week I share my visit to an art exhibition on Paris from 1860 to 1925. It was unexpectedly so inspiring that I got back to painting again. So happy to say that. As I have shared it is important to stay connected with creativity even when you are not feeling particularly arty or lack the energy to create art.
After seeing artwork that demonstrated to have light colors you need to have their opposite - darks to make them really shine. I wanted to darken the overall tone of a current painting so I decided to use a glaze. Using a glaze in your painting is useful to unify your painting. Glazes can also be used to change the temperature of the painting to cool or warm depending on what color is used for your glaze. I added a Golden Gloss Glazing medium to my glaze mixture for this painting. I hope it inspires you too to try the glazing technique.
