Study of Acrylic Glaze Technique
Posted by rachelcreative on October 12, 2006
Study of an apple following a lesson in glazing in acrylics. On canvas board 6″x9″
The first painting I feel actually proud of for more years than I can count. Amazing what a bit of application and and a bit of guidance can do.
UPDATE 18 Mar 2007: I see a lot of people searching for information about acrylic glazing technique :) Here’s a link to the lesson I followed off the WetCanvas forum.
The steps are embedded within a loooonnng thread of discussion which is old and closed now - but keep trawling through the pages - all the steps are there.
I learnt a lot just from this one lesson - I never painted a picture like this one before that lesson! Have fun.

I can honestly say I would rather eat the apple you’ve painted there more then I would a real one… your painting looks shiney, juicy, and more real then an actual apple! I absolutely love this peice of your art work! You did a fantastic job and I look forward to looking at more of your art! Keep it up! ^_^
