Glazing is the process of applying translucent paint over an opaque layer. This technique is mostly used by painters to create a glow. It can also be used to describe a form. Applying glaze takes patience though, the lower layer has to be really really dry before applying the translucent layer and oil paints take a while to dry otherwise the opaque colour under will lift and the glaze will no longer be translucent. For luminosity, applying multiple layers of translucent colour is the best way but requires the most patience. Thin means the addition of pigment in oil. It is done in oil painting to increase viscosity and spreadability.
