"Hi, I'm Sue Rose with Expert Village and today we're talking about transparency and glazes in watercolor. We have worked on our product and I also showed you how to lift off when using transparencies or glazes. But if you don't have enough time and want to have a much speedier process; you can always in the beginning use some kind of art masking fluid, which is like rubber gum eraser and put that on the areas that you want to remain light on your painting. You can paint over it, it will not affect the paint and when you’re finish and your painting is completely dry you can take an eraser and erase it off and you will have white areas left on there. So you don't have to go through the continuous process of lifting out but this is fun to do glazes and transparencies. And I hope it has helped you, here is the finished painting that I did today. Please stay tuned for other videos of art from Expert Village."
