Glass Painting Kits
The Glass Painting Kits for beginners that I have been working on for at least a month are FINALLY done! It was so exiting getting the first one all together and in the box! I have yet to find an adult who will try, but I gave one of them to my boss for her 6 year old daughter to try out, and one to a co-worker for her 9 year old grand daughter. The results are in, and I am impressed!

to see what these aspiring artists did! Rachael and Emily were supposed to wait for Grandma to read the directions and offer advice, but they were excited, and jumped the gun with their glass painting kits. They went it alone!
If a 6 year old can do it with her 9 year old sister reading the directions, Wow!
And even better, I can be reached by e-mail if the painter needs any advice at all. sallywillson@yahoo.com

Mixing cups and/or pallet

So you will not be running to the store for supplies. Everything you need to finish the painting is in the kit. No time or travel expenses for you.
* Instructions are not only written in step 1, step 2, step 3 format, but are accompanied by step 1, step 2, step 3 patterns. The patterns are taped on to the back side of the glass, so that the painter can see exactly what she is doing when she puts the paint on the glass. No experience in painting is needed. So just in case there are mistakes, and we all make them, they can be wiped off very easily. You never need to worry about messing it up.
* There is enough paint in the acrylic sets to do 3 or 4 painting kit sets when the directions are followed. If you enjoy it, you might want to purchase the instructions and graphic patterns for a second or third set at $4 each, or $2 for the childrens’ glass painting patterns. That will save a bundle later on.
* The glass painting kits for children are equipped with small cups of pre mixed paints. No guesswork, and kids are naturals at this anyway. All they will need is to put news paper on the work surface and there will be no mess.
* All kits include fast drying acrylic paints. The painting needs time to dry between steps before it can be worked on again. Who wants to wait for the paint to dry? You just want to get on it!
* Glass painting kits can be mailed directly, or drop shipped to grand children. Save the time and expense of rerouting if this is going to be a gift.
* You may contact me by e-mail if you have any questions at all, at sallywillson@yahoo.com You aren’t in this alone. My e-mail is checked daily, and yours will be answered.

Probably for a more advanced painter, the first subject I thought of for glass painting kits was lighthouses. that may be because they were very popular as a painting subject in Early American reverse paintings on glass. So this is where I started. I think that the next painting kit that I make will have a subject of deer, and then possibly on to wolves or deer.
A word to the wise, this is not, and I stress not, a paint by number kit. It's much more of a chalenge than that in one way, yet gives the painter more freedom in another.

The price of this glass painting kit is $38 plus s & h. It will include an acrylic paint set, brushes you will need, paint mixing cups, written directions and graphics to help you along, and 2 11" x 14" new picture frames with glass to paint on.
However, if you already have the supplies, and would like to purchase only the directions and graphic assist section to both of the paintings will be a total of $8. This price includes the shipping. This would be the better option for those who already paint in oils, and prefer the stronger, more permanent 'feel' of oil colors, or the person already painting in acrylics, who has the material already, and has the benifit of knowing the nature of the beast, and does not need the entire glass painting kit.

Learn to Paint on Glass
So you have seen a few reverse paintings on glass, and decided you would like to try it? That’s the look you really want, and you would like to do it yourself? Yes, you can paint on glass! Everyone always wants to do their best work immediately, but slow down, because there is the learning process. Not difficult at all..
That’s where I come in handy. I wish I could offer more, but other than classes here and there for painting in oils on canvass and watercolor classes, I have not had formal training in the art world. How ever, I have been reverse painting on glass for over 8 years now, and I am able to offer help in that area.
This is more than just a hobby for me. I work the evening shift at my regular job, and when I come home at night, I work on my reverse glass paintings for an hour or two before going to bed. I do this five nights a week, giving myself a break only on weekends. I have made mistakes, but I have also learned how to avoid them, and correct them. Enough about me. Let’s talk about you.
You are reading this because you want to learn how to do a reverse painting on glass. You can! You don’t know quite where to begin, or how to proceed. After just a few paintings, you will have the experience and confidence to start the painting that you have been thinking about.
What I have to offer is this; A glass painting kit containing all of the needed materials and step by step instructions, (written by yours truly ) with a picture of each of the steps when completed. There is also a ‘map’ that you will tape on the back side of the glass to help with perspective.
Each glass painting kit will have two framed glass panes, for you to do two complete paintings with. Part of the contents will include an acrylic paint set. I chose acrylics only because you would probably like to finish the paintings in a reasonable time frame.
Oils take much longer to dry. Personally, I prefer to work in oils. They are so much stronger and more permanent. For those who are familiar with oils, or those who immediately want to paint in oils, the complete instructions are available without the rest of the kit.
The big things to keep in mind when reverse painting are as follows:
1) Always clean out the brushes and equipment when you are through painting for a session.
2) Allow the paint to dry between steps. With acrylics, it’s usually an overnight deal.
3) If you are going to paint with acrylics, you can only paint over that area once without erasing the previously laid paint. The second coat needs to dry also before you can treat it as a first coat.
4) If you are painting in oils, and allow the paint of the first coat to dry thoroughly, you needn’t worry about painting over it repeatedly. If it’s dry, it’s there.
5) Tape masking tape around all edges of the glass to prevent cuts on the hands until you’re almost done. After that, be very, very careful about handeling the glass.
For those of you who have already begun, I hope that my five tips help. For anyone else who may want to try their hand, I have been and will be working on more painting kits with different subjects to paint. Best wishes, and happy painting!
