Today's Frequently Asked Question:

Question: I am painting a still life and need help creating a soft edge. I have the background, but how do you push some of the bouquet back into it? I want a flower to look fresh but faded into the background.

Answer: The best way to create soft edges on an existing object and to push it back is to apply one or two transparent glazes. You do this by taking water with a little bit of white paint and whatever color you want for the glaze. This should be a very thin, transparent glaze. Now take a soft brush, preferably a hake brush, and apply this glaze over the area which you want to soften, then let it dry. Repeat, applying the glaze as many times as you wish until you get the desired effect.
