Then we applied new glaze, using the same formula be used before. Warning! I forgot the mix included also non-alkyd medium so I tried to make it thinner adding more and more alkyd medium and the mix stayed very sticky, I had to wipe the excess of glaze with a rug to desaturate the canvas. This glaze was applied selectively by areas, darker in dark areas and thinner in lighter areas such as the face. Then I had the chance to fix some problems such the breast size. After the glaze we get lights again with a rug.
Now we began to paint with the glaze still wet, so we save some time, and the paint integrated easily with the previous layer.
We continue working on contrast, trying to get more volume and character. I had to apply more Burnt Sienna in order to warm up the picture, and get rid of that greenish hue.
We will wait until next session, probably the last one on applying glaze.
