Glazing is layer transparent color over some section of underpainting. Born of the traditional technique of glazing with oils developed in Europe about 700 years ago, acrylic painters can also enjoy the luminous effects this technique creates.

The key is to know what colors to use, what to mix into the color to create transparency. I used to HATE glazing with acrylics because I worked with oil paints for 15 years and was used to their slow-drying, easy leveling properties. Now that I know to use a glazing medium I can create a similar effect with acrylics with the added benefit that I can layer quickly without waiting days or weeks for the layer underneath to dry as is often necessary with oil glazing.
