Types of Varnishes
Types of Varnishes Your choice of varnish will affect the final look of your art. However, you should choose your varnish on more than just its appearance. Stability and clarity should also be considered in the choice to ensure that your art lasts a very long time and that it continues to look exactly as you intended. Mediums and glazes are not final picture varnishes. Mediums and glazes do not have all the same protective qualities of a varnish. This can be confusing because some mediums and glazes unify the surface sheen and can form a layer over the painting that appears to dry to a “durable” finish. Isolation Varnish In the case of acrylic gloss medium, it can function as an “isolation varnish”, which is used over layers of acrylic paint, but under the final picture varnish. An isolation varnish becomes a permanent part of the painting. It’s used to seal pigment at the surface of a painting, as well as any underbound washes of paint. It also keeps the painting protected in the event that the removable varnish used on top needs to be cleaned and removed. When adding an isolation varnish to an acrylic painting, it is still very important to add a removable varnish over it. Retouch Varnish Retouch Varnish is used when painting with oils either during the artwork creation process, or after the painting is dry to touch. Depending on how long it takes to create a painting, you might have areas on an oil painting that look wet, and some that look dry.
