- Quote for This Week

Do you like the look of crackle glass?  I do.  And it’s fun to create as well.  A few years ago, I created an easy glass painting tutorial.  I decided it was time to update it a bit.  So, I went to work.  

I used Pebeo brand Vitrail Crackling Effects Kit to transform a large wine glass and a ginger jar into crackled glass decorative pieces.  This was something I had never tried before.  It was interesting to use a crackle medium over glass paint to get this wonderful effect. 

Originally, I applied the glass paint with a sponge which created a pebbled texture.  I was happy with it, but it didn’t show off the crackle effect as much as I had hoped.

This time around I used a soft flat brush to apply the glass paint and I got the look I was after.  Yippee!!

“Color possesses me. I don't have to pursue it.

It will possess me always, I know it.

That is the meaning of this happy hour:

Color and I are one.

I am a painter.”

-Paul Klee

That's it for now.
