Review: Outstanding! Necessary for artists, art historians & art lovers! - First, let me say the book arrived in pristine condition - thank you! I have read a variety of painting books with portions dedicated to glazing techniques. Nothing compares to this book in terms of breadth and depth. If you are an artist, art historian or simply a devoted lover of art, you must read this book. The author addresses the origin of pigments, the role of oils, the composition of specific paint colors, application methods and techniques utilizes by masters. In addition, the author discusses how paints age and how this impacts the work over time. The author also contrasts and compares the methods of the masters with the options and standards of present day materials. In addition, the author encourages contemporary artists to think how their color selection, application and glazing methods will appear over time. The excellent content is paired with spectacular images demonstrating the author's point. This book is an ideal textbook that should be mandatory reading in both studio art and art history courses. The publisher printed the book on durable, glossy pages that do justice to the art plates. I simply can't praise this book enough, it's worth every penny spent and more! Review: DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK - This is a great book with a wealth of information. The layout and design could have been better, but the straightforward information about painting/glazing is indispensible and often hard to find explained so plainly. This is NOT a beginning painting book, but more for the painter who has spent some time with the medium and needs more of a fleshing out of historical and practical knowledge. The images are very well printed and pertinent to the information being discussed, which is helpful when dealing with color/glazing. While this book is certainly worth more than its MSRP of 39.99, you should NOT be paying a cent more than that, especially not 200.00 for a book that is still being printed today, by an artist who is still living. Do a little internet sleuthing on the artist and the "school of colour" and thank me later. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,355,807 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 118 Reviews | ## Images ![Glazing with an emphasis on the craft of painting - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/814w6d80cPL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding!

As a painter I am willing to take the extended periods of time necessary to build a painting up in layers, but unfortunately patience is not enough. I frequently find that after a meticulously executed grisaille underpainting, I am at a complete loss as to how to achieve the colors and effects I desire. Often the "obvious" choice produces a sickly glaze that I cannot wait to wipe off immediately. (One good thing about glazing is that you have the equivalent of the "Undo" key!) This book is truly the bible on glazing, and it immediately revealed why I was running into trouble. It is an invaluable resource for the painter who chooses to work in the traditional underpainting/glazing approach. Also I rather enjoy the author's rather tongue-in-cheek style after all the overstuffed purists that one runs across. ## Frequently Bought Together - Glazing with an emphasis on the craft of painting - Traditional Oil Painting: Advanced Techniques and Concepts from the Renaissance to the Present - The Artist's Handbook of Materials and Techniques: Fifth Edition, Revised and Updated (Reference) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/95081272-glazing-with-an-emphasis-on-the-craft-of-painting](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/95081272-glazing-with-an-emphasis-on-the-craft-of-painting) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
