GLASS PAINTING….

dscn5155.jpg

 I visited a shop for HOBBY IDEAS , i have always loved to do something creative and this shop gives one an opportunity to do something new. I have done glass paintings  before, by tracing a design and then giving it an gold border .after the border dries you have to fill it with the available glass colours. In this shop i found interesting frames which are made of plastic and have the designs itched into it you have to just pour the colours into those designs .

I did just that but the colour bottles gave out air bubbles , which made the picture less than perfect,but for me creating something with your own hands has lots of pleasure and to display it, may it be for a short period of  time .

here i have it stuck with a cello tape to my window where the morning light makes it look wellll…. good!!!

pls tell me your views hahah….

    Hi Akshata,
    Painting is really pretty. You can avoid bubbles from showing up by breaking them while filing colours. Use a toothpick for same. :)
    Did you start anything new?
    Am yet to give a final touch to my painting :)

    hi akshata,

    Very nice glass paintin. i have been doing most kinds of art work.
    Have done quite a few glass paints, but this idea is new. i think the air bubble makes the paint look different. i agree with ur idea of pleasure to perfection.
    i liked this painting, if given time and chance will do it.

    Cheers,
    Preeti

  16. hi
    Kinny,
    canvas is a very vast medium , you can do anything on it, but it is for you to decide which medium you would like to use..
    whether it would be water colour painting , oil painting or some other medium . you can go to book stores search for some books if you do not have teachers so basic teaching books and see what is your liking…
    I am not professionally trained , but i do things as and when i see something and when i feel like painting something so when you go through the books you will know what you want to do ok…

    Hi,

    The painting is very beautiful. You can break the air bubbles by piercing it with a pin. But this has to be done before the paint dries. Also do not shake the paint bottles before using them.. as it causes bubbles to be formed.

    I would like to share some of my glass paintings. they are not so perfect though.. as my drawing capabilities are minimal..
