Abstract

“Scumbling” relates to that description of painting in which portions of the last coat are removed in order to expose part of the coat beneath. Glazing is a system of painting whereby a thin, transparent coat of one color - which is usually bright - is glazed or painted over another color which is a solid and is often relatively sombre in hue. Due to the actual mounted samples this book is highly useful for teaching purposes.
