Ukranian Reverse Glass Painting

One of the lesser known folk arts in Ukraine is reverse glass painting which is created by applying paint to a piece of glass, then turning the glass over and viewing the image through the glass. This art form was widely used in the painting of Byzantine icons, many of which were also gilded. In this course, we will explore this craft using acrylic paint on sheets of acrylic (plexiglass) to learn the process, emulating contemporary Ukranian tapestry design patterns. Supply list will be sent following registration.
