To do this reverse glass painting u can either buy a kit with design of ur choice or
buy a
glass,
glass liner
glass colours
gold powder and medium for it
Fabric colours of ur choice.

*Place the glass above the design and draw the design with glass liner as u do mehendi.
*Let it dry for sometime.
*In case u do pictures of Gods then keep in mind u have to trace the mirror image of gods, as u would frame the reverse of the glass and not the side u

paint. (else u’ll have the hands interchanged)
*Now first give the red and green glass color where ever required like the stones in the necklaces, then mix the gold powder with the medium and give it

in the required places. (Make sure u paint the fine details or effects that are to be seen thro other side of glass, first)
*Paint other parts with fabric colors and finally the background.
U can also see the videos from you tube for more help

Hi

I found ur website very interesting. It has so many types of paintingsto learn from.Thanks uso much for sharing them free of cost n spreading ur knowledge.
I have a small question>>>>

When ever i make a reverse glass painting…(pls correct me if i am wrong) I usedto paint lightly n then when i looked thru the glass the paint used to be patchy so now i have started using a lot of paint by giving it a thick coat. I want to ask u that if i paint normally using normal paint….can i finally paint the whole glass on the reverse so that the patchy work does not show…..pls send me ur tip soon as i am in the process of a painting.
Thanks
Saraswati
