"Приступая к работе над картиной, он обычно использовал протирки прозрачными красками -- иногда эти протирки сохранялись в тенях. Предпочитал земельные краски, такие как умбры и охры".

married to a painter: that's what she suggests, but, she says, she too doesn't quite understand what they mean... and she is by no ments self-taught: studied a hell of a lot of art history!

Scumbling
Scumbling
Complementing the aforementioned Old Masters painting techniques is the technique called scumbling. Scumbling involves applying a thin layer of lighter opaque or semi-opaque paint over a layer of different, often darker, colored paint. Although glazing, like scumbling, also consists of applying a thin layer of paint on a dried underpainting, these two painting techniques are different in that scumbling generally overlays light color over dark and uses opaque paints. Scumbling may be achieved by scraping, scrubbing or dragging the lighter layer of opaque paint over a dark underpainting, resulting in a hazy, opalescent effect. Scumbling allows the artist to effect smooth transitions from light to dark and to modify the original color of the overlaid area without completely concealing it.

base coat
Base coat is applied to the canvas before actually painting with oils, it reduces the glare of the original material of the canvas. Usually applied with a large brush.
A similar technique is also used for water colours where one usually applies a colour wash before commencing the use of water colours

The canvas of course is where you will paint your painting. The canvas needs to have
a "base coat" of paint applied before you can start the painting. This cuts down on glare from the material that the canvas is made of. As stated earlier, oil based paint dries very slowly and acrylic paints dry much quicker. This is why many artists choose to apply an acrylic paint as their base coat. This is fine as one can then apply the oil paint over the basecoat of acrylic without any issues. Usually three to four light coats of a base acrylic paint will do the job. This also helps to add texture to your painting.
The base coat is applied with a large brush that is referred to as a "wash brush".

The Misha
: Except it is not called base coat in oil painting (car painting, yes; nail painting, yes), it's called an underpainting, and it doesn't look like they are talking abut that here. If anything, the underpainting is NOT transparent. Nor does canvas "glare".
