This painting is complete and waiting for varnish. I might add a few more layers of glaze. I want to wait to see what the varnish does to the colors. This might also be an occasion to work with matte varnish in certain areas.
I create my own matte varnish by adding dissolved beeswax to my picture varnish or painting medium.
