Question SIR,
I WOULD LIKE TO WORK WITH GLASSES...
HOW CAN WE DRAW FACE,EYES ,NOSE ETC IN THE GLASS.WHAT TYPE OF PAINT IS USED...IS IT WILL FADE.
FROM WHERE WE GET THE MATERIALS SUCH AS COPPER FOIL ,GLASS IN INDIA
Answer Georgy,
For supplies, I can only recommend going on the Internet and looking for stained glass supplies there in India. Shipping internationally will be terribly expensive. However, if you like, contact S.A. Bendheim Company West in Oakland California. You could look them up on the Internet. I don't have an e-mail address for them. A contact section will be on the website.
As for glass painting, there is an expert on this site who will be of help to you. It is Stephen Byrne. He is in England and is a master glass painter. He is the only one I know of who can give you assistance by e-mail. There is a downloadable course on glass painting that is excellent. He is the one to whom you should direct questions on glass painting.
If you will, tell him that Carl Trimble at Trimble Studios in Texas referred you to him.
Good luck in your pursuits. It is a wonderful art form and craft.
