Re: Painting on Glass

Very lovely Azure. Where do you collect your glass from?
So you ever sell these?
Or give them away as gifts?

Bratti , Usually to my family
I paint them on small Clip Art Frames and they can go straight on the wall. They are not expensive.

You can practice on old frames that has scratched glass.also practice on plastic glass.
I only bought 3 colours of glass paint to start with.
Red Yellow and Blue and these make many other colours when mixed together. You can trace the design by taping it to reverse of the glass and outline with Black Glass outliner.
Or paint free hand.

Clip Art Frames. I will check at my local art store. I’ve got 4 glass paints already but no glass and I’d really like to try this.
I love watercolour painting and think the surface of glass would be an ideal medium that I’ve never tried before. Plus I’ve never considered taping the glass right over pictures to trace the design or outline of a picture.

I do sometimes take carbon paper and trace outlines for either pen and ink drawings or woodburnt art and it works very well.

Thanks Azure. I will be sure to try this.
Thank you
