Glaz- ing will create atmospheric effects, or correct and even fine tune transitions between contrasting elements. Other techniques will be addressed. Different tools and materials will be introduced. In- stead of a painting each week, we will do a number vignettes, bits of street and rural scenes, seascape glimpses, works with people will also be featured.
