Varnishing acrylic paintings

This is for anyone who has completed an acrylic painting but is now becoming anxious about varnishing it! Heard about "bubbles", the varnish becoming "milky" or brush strokes ruining your work? This video walks you through the process of varnishing a painting so you can work with confidence and get good results. It’s not as hard as you might have heard!

Acrylic paints are expected to last for centuries and they don’t age, crack or discolor like oil paintings tend to. Although they are extremely permanent, water-resistant and durable after drying varnishing is the “finishing touch” which will unify your painting and bring out the intensity of those colours that may appear dull.
