Reverse painting on glass – Making your work area or in the studio for painting on glass Reverse

After painting on glass for several years, I decided to create a list of things that can help a lot of beginners to painting behind it.

The first thing on that list for many clothes by hand. Soft cotton is by far the best use. Polyester fabric, silk and silk materials are not good at all. Cutting at least half of the canvas into pieces about 6 "to 8", more or less rectangular, but there is no time for picky about this.Save for later this nitpicking. You need it.

Has only one cutting razor blades on hand. There will be times when the space is not enough to 'drop' with small pieces. The error can be cut with a razor blade after the paint is dry, in this case.

There should be a place in your workplace for a role of paper towels and a bottle of window cleaner. Even if you start to clean the glass, it becomes much more drying time of paint.Areas not painted glass will gather dust, and possibly even paint smears during drying.

A table is low enough in the workplace is an essential element. You should see all the work of all time. If the table is too high, it is unpleasant to work. I have two desks in my office, both iron-pedal sewing machine bases with pine table tops.
There is also a short wooden stool perch for me while I was in these colorsTables.

Containers to store the brushes in containers on their heads, so you can stay in a round brush, flat brush in a second, third in fan brushes, and so forth. This makes it much easier to brush, you need more easily found. I use large earthen cups to drink the glass furnace for them. Are quite heavy on the work that does not point to the table, no matter how many you have filled out the brush has been an extra for the small tools in the study.This will require a paint can opener, a spring clip for images to work on the easel, so the image that I work from so close at hand, a pair PLYERS the tip of tubes of paint to paint manicure sticks too stubborn and thin lines continue.

A system for cleaning brushes. What I did not for this, it is a "Bob Ross' Grill unit in a large, heavy plastic coffee can. In this way, if I'm not going to paint one or two days, I have the coverCoffee can. It will not be overthrown by a cat walk and you will not have to paint smell a bit thin '.

A bin with lid is a good thing. Again, there is the smell of paint thinner rags.
Audio system with your favorite CD or 6, will also help.

When my husband and I were developed in the studio, I reworked the old Big Pine floor. In any case, I wanted to ruin, so I bought a cheap area rug, 6 'x 9', and centered inworkspace.

In an attempt to see how the color you have to walk on glass, it is also useful to keep around a couple of slices. For example, if you use a round brush, dip into a jar of heavy latex paints, brushes the tip glass staff and pulls gently at the same time, however, at the end of the brush on the glass. Always with the same rhythm, but eventually lift the brush, so the sharp point of a final document brusha plant. For a step further, you can use a brush with white highlights on the same sheet, while still wet with a light or yellow. If you like, you are nothing. If you do not like it, clean it with a glass of rags small cut you. Find another way to get the magazine you need. At least you have experimented with glass there! It 'was a good thing!

Concerning a color palette goes, I hate them cleaning personnel. When Idone using a latex paint, I pour a little 'in a plastic lid from a bowl of cottage cheese or a plate of polystyrene, which I bought tomato. Can be reused when the paint dries, and then thrown away.
Last but not least, if you use oil paints, which I turned the painting on glass, you need something thin oils. I prefer to paint for this use. This is a difficult base paint thinner and very dry very quickly. The oils are very slowdry when thinned with turpentine or mineral spirits.

Who really wants to go, could have done stained glass. For some it may be a larger circulation. But I think that was constructed on the basis of these considerations, Ark by amateurs, professionals, it took to build the Titanic. Finally, at this point I can offer something more, unless the painting is happy, and good luck! After painting on glass for several years, I decided to create a list of things that can contribute a lot for beginners to the fact thatBehind a glass.
