What about stained glass painting with oil?
It’s also great to work with oil because oil is a lovely way to shade.
You’ve given me a gift I cannot repay: I have wanted so much to get good instruction, and now at last I have (Kara Unland, California, US)
See here for glass painting with oil and also how to paint a stained glass face.
3. How silver stain can dramatically improve the value and beauty of your work
Or silver stain, because I can save you time and money …
Then there’s silver stain, which most people mix with water or vinegar, which is crazy because it costs you time and money and also wrecks your brushes. Go here for this useful guide to using silver stain with oil.
Your material is so much easier to understand than other books I have seen (Sonya Conlin, Kent, England)
We’ve saved the studio so much money since abandoning water and taking up with stain and oil. You can do the same.
Everything comes with a risk-free guarantee.
Thank you for your very impressive and helpful material (Claire O’Halloran, West Kerry, Ireland)

The tycoon's challenge

It isn’t every day you sit in a tycoon’s boardroom (complete with a terrifying set of Gothic, lion-clawed chairs) and receive a challenge:

The boardroom was littered with other makers’ samples – wallpaper, curtains, rugs, table-tops etc.
I could see the tycoon’s problem.
