Recipes for Glaze Mediums
Some typical recipes for glaze mediums are as follows [the first one gives good results for all-round purposes and is in wide use]:
Medium 1
Stand Oil 1 fluid ounce
Damar varnish [5-pound cut] 1 fluid ounce
Pure gum spirits of turpentine 5 fluid ounces
Cobalt drier 15 drops
Medium 2
Damar varnish 4 fluid ounces
Sun-refined linseed oil 2 fluid ounces
Venice turpentine 1 fluid ounce
Pure gum spirits of turpentine 4 fluid ounces
The manipulative properties of such mediums can be altered to meet individual requirements by slight changes in the proportion of oily and resinous ingredients. Increasing the varnish content will give a more sticky or tacky quality, and decreasing it will make it handle in a more oily way.
