I have been wondering what paint was best for stained glass. I made a stained glass mosaic piece for my garden and used some stained glass paint off of amazon. Baked it in the oven, started flaking off when it came to doing the grouting (thin set) part. Didn’t have high hopes for it anyways and it wasn’t a huge bummer as I used the paint to draw seeds on my strawberry. I am currently working on another mosaic project, this time an indoor piece and I’m playing around with making my own “tile” by both painting on the back in glass , then coating with a layer of mod podge and also printing on paper, then sewing onto glass with mod podge. I’m fully aware this may sound odd and off but I’m going for a specific look and kinda hoping it turns out the way it looks in my head 😋. As far as the kiln, we have an art school down the road. Mainly for kids classes and whatnot but they have a kiln because I get the emails about fused glass classes. I wonder if places like that would be willing to help small time newbie artists like us with firing when they have space.

[@ARTyRV]

Yes, visit the school. Maybe you could donate your scrap glass in exchange for kiln time? For paint to last outdoors use the paints in the video.

[@debbiesteffen448]

Do you think I would have issues mixing the Reusche paint with my colors for earth enamels. I am envisioning black outlines on my items colored with my cfe paints. Thanks for the video.

[@ARTyRV]

Not sure. You might try some test firings and see if you get the results you are looking for

[@imadothedamnthing4998]

Thanks!

[@ARTyRV]

You bet!

[@ARTyRV]

You are awesome!!

[@BluJns]

Thank You for your class. I have a stained glass lamp. The colors are basic shades of brown. Can I change the colors with paint? Will painting over cream & amber color affect the purples & greens color? This is a modern HSN lamp. I wouldn't try it on a Tiffany!

[@ARTyRV]

You can apply paint to the underside of the glass but it will not be permanent and probably not change the color because of density of the glass. The only way to achieve permanent new color would be to take the lamp apart and paint it then fire it.

[@BluJns]

@@ARTyRV Thank you so much! If I take it apart I would probably replace the glass. Now I know how to get the glass colors I really want by mixing & painting! Thank you again!

[@kamalmohammed3439]

thank you for this video I'm curious why u use gum in painting I'm Iraqi artist style painting

[@en2336]

How did you get the pictures of the birds onto the glass? :O thank you for the advanced tutorial! It's this the only type of paint typically used in stained glass?

[@ARTyRV]

The painting was traced over a light box from an original drawing.

[@denmakercreative]

Hello, great video as always. Can I ask, at the end of the video you mention that the glass is fired to approx 1125 degrees for approx 40 mins with a 3 min soak time. I'm new to stained glass painting and wondered if this schedule was the only firing that is required for the Ruesche range of enamel paints (I also have the Reusche) but haven't fired yet or explored. So just wondering before I get going which approx firing schedule I should start off with? Thanks so much :)

[@ARTyRV]

That’s for tracing black. Follow the instructions on the bottle and the ramping instructions from the manufacturer. The bottle has the temperature on it. It must be brought up slowly depending on the kiln.

[@denmakercreative]

@ARTyRV Thanks so much, your help, support and continuous education is appreciated 👏

[@SkylightTeddy]

Wow

[@adeevision1297]

hi could you use a wood fired oven instead of the kiln as i suppose in olden times they wouldn't have had klins ?

[@ARTyRV]

Yes. Experiment with the paints, temps and glass first. Great Question!

@@ARTyRV thanks i read it now. I've only just started but someone i know said can't you use a pizza oven !

[@Katerina-vm2ok]

Hello, I just found your channel (rather YTube suggested it)…I am interested in only painting on the glass and not the whole process of cutting glass etc. I also have a kiln. Are these paints useful for just this purpose? Also, how many firings can be done with these paints on any individual piece, what I mean is can one do more than one firing of the same piece and until how many firings can one do? Thank-you in advance for your answer.

[@ARTyRV]

Yes. You'll fire the higher temp paint color first, etc.

[@Katerina-vm2ok]

@@ARTyRV Thank-you!

[@williamweiss1096]

How and when did you paint the bird???

[@ARTyRV]

Here is one from about two years ago kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5urYmiXrpeSlbssi=TzmTkMoxxxrebarZ

[@jeanburgin160]

Ed, if you don't have a kiln, can you use an oven to fire paints onto the glass?

[@ARTyRV]

Not if you want them permanent.

[@deannak1841]

After see another of ur videos i searched n couldnt find this paint. But thompson enamels- of which I'm familiar but they have "enamels for stained glass" and and "enamels for window glass" what's the difference? I have a stash of stained and recycled window glass- can i put them in the kiln? - i don't want to ruin my kiln shelves by testing

[@ARTyRV]

+Deanna Kriger We’ve used Thompson Enamals with window glass to add color on window glass. Rues he works o all types of glass. Not tempered or mirror.

[@kikilouise764]

Could you reproduce colored glass panels dating back to 1838? I have missing panels in my home and would live to restore them.

[@ARTyRV]

Yes we can!

[@kikilouise764]

May I send you some pictures? Could I get an email address?

[@ARTyRV]

Visit http:conwayglass.com/artyrv and send the form please. Thanks!

[@kikilouise764]

How can I send pictures on this form?

[@brianrehgable]

Can you paint on glass that is not transparent?

[@ARTyRV]

Yes

[@brianrehgable]

All the videos that I see, the people are tracing on the glass using transparent glass like you do. I would like to see one where they are not tracing.

[@jackieeast3642]

Do you think you could fire painted glass in a microwave kiln?

[@ARTyRV]

They do make paints like that.

[@palomavano4705]

What are these owens called? Are they spending too much energy?

[@ARTyRV]

Can you resend that question please? Not sure what you mean. Thanks for being a part of our glass community and have a great week!

[@janebree3912]

i’m curious why you chose such a extensive, time consuming, unreliable portioning for your liquid leading and not choose Gallery glass, Pebeo outliner or even easier fabric 3d paint? all affordable and mixed for you in a pointed nib tube? i feel this is tedious way of doing your art

[@ARTyRV]

We are leading stained glass. It is not the fake gallery glass method that resembles stained glass. Big difference! The paints we use are permanent and will not fade over time. It is the standard for professional glass artists worldwide. When clients pay thousands for a window, they expect it not fade over time. UV damages the hobby paints and is not practical for professional installations. The paints you are using are for the hobby and crafts and DIY market.

[@janebree3912]

@@ARTyRV Just to clarify, as a professional glass artist who has sold paintings going on 30 yrs without social media, I did not say I used “hobby” products but if it works i’d be a fool not to try it or ask another. I asked the question. since you answered me by looking down your nose on artisans who use affordable products may I remind you they also make “thousands” build clients and reputations of quality. I take the time to always learn and study other artists and the work it is why i asked the question. I see your opinion line has been drawn and you would be insulted to be called a glass paint hobbyist no?

[@joenic4303]

I'm a stained glass artist too. The method he's using is fusing glass powder to glass just as was done in the chapel and churches that have withstood 100s of years. I know about the paint you're referencing. It bakes on and is dishwasher safe, but it's nowhere near the level of the stain and enamel that requires 1,250-1,450 F to bake on. I get a bit put off by the amount of prep that goes into mixing the paint sometimes, but it's well worth it. Even among stains not all are equal. I was looking to make my own tracing black and was researching formulas and read about one supplier in the late 1800s that used too much borax which compromised the stain over time and began to etch off. It's quite interesting. Because the stained glass uses metal oxides, up to and including gold, it is light fast, meaning the UV won't fade it.
