The glass painter's method: brushes, paints & tools

Quick demonstrations

Dec 01, 2018

These are the demonstrations which accompany our first book.

If you’ve bought your own copy, thank you. If you don’t yet own a copy, please consider buying one - this supports the work we do on this free newsletter and website.

These videos give you a bird’s-eye view of the brushes, tools and paints we use for 95% of our traditional kiln-fired stained glass painting.

With just a few brushes, tools and paints, you can everything you’re about to see. It’s firm evidence you only need a little to achieve a lot.
