I read your article on glazing. I am very excited. I just painted my beautiful grand daughter on a setting sun beach with a surf board. I find the sunset could be improved and the surf board overpowers the picture instead of the subject. I think glazing will work well on that painting and I am going to try it. Hopefully, this sill be a successful attempt at improving my work.

Hi All! I keep looking at this video and contemplating whether to purchase or not. Just wondering if anyone is familiar with it, has used it (or know of anyone who has), and whether it was found useful or not?

Thanks for your input!
