When selecting varnish, it’s important to consider the medium, finish, and level of protection required for your artwork. Oil varnishes are specifically designed to enhance the richness of oil paintings, while acrylic varnishes offer versatility for modern works. The choice between matte, satin, or gloss finishes depends on the desired aesthetic and how you want your piece to be perceived. Additionally, UV-resistant varnishes are crucial for preventing fading and discoloration over time. Artists working on large surfaces may benefit from spray varnishes for even application, while brush-on options provide more control for intricate pieces. Taking these factors into account ensures your varnish choice aligns perfectly with your artistic needs.
