Glass painting is One of the easiest art work. There are so many types of Glass Painting.
Here I am going to explain Reverse Glass painting Work. There are 5 steps to create Reverse Glass Painting.
1) First find out tracing paper and discover a reverse painting. ( reverse painting is created by painting a subject onto one side of a sheet of glass , after which it is viewed from the other side of the glass, or through the glass)
2) Make sure the glass you use is totally free of scratches before choosing it as a support to paint on. Always work in a relatively dust free area when painting on glass. Before start painting or doing outlines apply thinner to your glass so glass will properly clean and ready to paint.
3) It is essential to work in a careful way. This is because glass is a non-absorbent surface. Therefore, the paint will take longer to dry and can lift off easily. In addition, since you are working back-to-front and applying the finer details first, you need a lot of patience and extra concentration. Draw the paint with fine outliner which easily available in market. Once outliner dry apply colors carefully.
4) If possible, use good quality paint brushes when working on glass, particularly for applying finer details. (You can also use Fine Glass Liner which is easily available in any stationary shop) OR (You can use colors which are available in thin bottles having thin tip so you can directly apply the colors to your painting without using brushes)
5) Let the painting dry and keep the glass in dust free area. Wrap it in a newspaper.
After above five steps you will find a beautiful painting, I have made one reverse glass painting as follows:

Warnings :- Always store glass somewhere safe where there are no risks for small children or pets.
