I got a set of Color Line glass enamel paints for Christmas. This is my first painting I did with them. I did the painting on an ivory piece of glass and edged it with a dark grey Opal glass. The paints were pretty easy to work with and they can be thinned with water or the medium they make to go with these paints. You can use them thick or watery like water color. They fire pretty close to the way they look unfired. The only catch is the reds burn off or disappear if you don't vent the kiln properly when firing. You can get help with that problem from Bullseye Glass company and also from the product brochure. Otherwise I am quite excited about using them.
The piece above is 8x8 and can be slumped into a square plate mold or left as an art panel to display in a stand or hang with a plate hanger on the wall.
