8 Continue to Build the Design Trace some other shapes into the surface. Add circles to the design by tracing around jar lids. Fill in the circle with white gesso using a ?-inch (12mm) fl at. Scrape into the gesso with the end of your brush for texture. Echo the whites elsewhere on the surface. Add graphite to some of these white areas for contrast. 7 Add Glazes and More Opaque Passages Add different glazes of color using Quinacridone Crimson, Turquois (Phthalo) and Quinacridone/Nickel Azo Gold. These hues can be combined to create many other colors. Mix the paints with black and white gesso to create opaque passages. 9 Refi ne the Edges Look for interesting shapes and fi rm up the edges with a permanent felttip marker. Turn your canvas to see what the painting needs. Glaze areas you feel need a little more punch of color or need a different value for variety and interest. 22
