🎨 Ways to Use Paper Artsy Matte Glaze

1. As a Sealant / Varnish

• Apply a thin layer over your finished artwork, collage, or stamped images using a brush, sponge, or even your finger.

• It will seal your work and protect it without altering the colours.

• Since it’s matte, it won’t reflect light or add shine.

2. To Adhere Collage Elements

• Use it as a glue for adhering:

  • Rice paper

  • Tissue paper

  • Printed napkins

  • Die cuts or ephemera

• Brush a layer under and over the piece, pressing it down gently with a silicone brush or brayer.

3. As a Resist Medium

• Brush a thin layer over specific areas of your project and allow to dry.

• When you paint or ink over it, the areas where the glaze was applied will resist the colour—ideal for creating distressed or layered effects.

4. To Create Custom Glazes

• Mix a small amount of Matte Glaze with Infusions, Acrylic Paints, or mica powders to create a tinted glaze.

• This is great for toning down backgrounds or adding subtle colour washes.

5. As a Fixative

• Lightly brush it over pencil, chalk, or pastel work to stop it from smudging.

• It's also helpful over stamped images before adding wet mediums.

🧽 Tips for Best Results

• Use thin layers to avoid streaks.

• Clean brushes immediately after use – it dries fast!

• Shake well before use.

• It can be sanded once dry for extra distressing effects on surfaces like wood or journal covers.
