Daffodils on Glass

Posted in Art Work, and Peeking Behind the Easel

I just love seeing all the daffodils in full bloom around the yard. I used them as my inspiration for my newest wine glasses. I used a rough sketch drawn in my sketch book last week and looking out my window as my guide for painting.

And here they are  –

Daffodil wine glasses

I enjoy the challenge of painting on glass and treat the glass as if it was a canvas. Glass paint is a bit sticky and takes some convincing to lay smoothly on the ultra smooth glass surface. Once I build up 3 -4 layers of paint to create an opaque surface base, then the fun of painting in details and adding colors begins.  These cheerful glasses will bring a touch of spring all year round and can be found in my Etsy shop.

  1. Beautiful glasses, lovely work! 
    I love daffodils… We are just starting to see them here, in fact I only have one lonely one that has bloomed so far in my yard.  The temps warmed up, then we had a freeze… Hopefully we'll see more soon.

      Maybe the one was the highlight of what is on it’s way! It won’t be long now for that great Spring weather to arrive – and all the flowers. 🙂
