Complete Your Painting With Glazing - 1 Day | Marcel Desbiens

Do you have any unfinished paintings?

Enhance your painting with Marcel Desbiens' signature glazing technique. This has been used for centuries to enhance the visual effects of painting. It is also a great way to refine the final visual aspect of the artwork. The principal advantage of glazing is the ability to adjust and improve gradually the most important elements of a painting: tones, colours, texture and details. This workshop is about understanding and applying this technique so you can finish your painting and get the most out of those long hours already spend on your unfinished artwork.

There will be step by step demonstrations and one on one tuition by Marcel Desbiens.

*This is also an opportunity to complete a painting from Marcel Desbiens' specialty workshops, Foundations in Oils, Gain Confidence in Oils.
