Oil glazing with Galkyd Lite and Gamsol — thin transparent color layers
50k ft — Why care?
A three-step oil glaze: once the painting is fully dry, mix your color with Galkyd Lite and Gamsol to a thin, transparent consistency (more Gamsol for thinner), then brush it over the target area.
10k ft — Key takeaways
• Galkyd Lite + Gamsol is the glazing medium; tune thinness with Gamsol
• Only glaze over completely dry paint
5k ft — Tools & techniques

oil glazing
1k ft — Deep-dive / try it
First make sure the painting is dry before glazing
Ok here’s how I did it!
1. I took my red color and put it in a container
2. I added galkyd Lite and gamsol together to create a thin layer (add more or less gamsol to get the consistency you desire)
3. Take your brush and apply over the deaired area!
Enjoy!
