My friend Sarah picked up an old window at a flea market for $5 this past summer. She commissioned me to paint a botanical scene on the window for her bedroom. I used a wax pencil to draw my design onto the window, and then applied artist's acrylic paints directly to the glass. I finished it with a matte varnish, which gave the clear glass a frosted finish and will help protect the painting.Monday, November 23, 2009
