Glass Painting

It is one of the most interesting and creative art done on Glass.

How to do:

  • First a traced design is placed on the table and the plain glass is placed above the design, so that the design is clearly seen through the glass.
  • Now using a marker you can trace the design on to your glass.
  • Draw the outline using a glass painting marker which is available in the market.
  • Before you start painting the color, test your shades on the corner of the glass and wipe it off with the thinner. 
  • The color choice should be perfect  because the stained glass paint gets dried up fast and the correction cannot be done easily.
  •  Allow it to dry and place a aluminum foil behind the picture and frame it.
  • Aluminum foil can also be crushed and used. Even black velvet cloth or color chat can be used as the back ground.
Tips:The paint is fired so that it fuses with the surface of the glass permanently.
