### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Just an OK to sub par book for glass painting
  

*by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2006*

Just beginning glass painting and swayed by the previous glowing reviews, I purchased a copy of "The Glass Painting Book" by Jane Dunsterville.  Also, the photo of the gorgeous painted mirror on the back cover certainly helped!  I will say that I am VERY disappointed as the book didn't meet my expections.Since this book is geared towards "the first-time glass painter", I anticipated some discussion about different kinds of glass paints, different techniques, ideas, etc.  The book only glosses over these introductory subjects.For example, in her "Materials and Equipment" section, she discusses different kinds of glass paints.  Some paints need baking and some are air drying only, or that some are more translucent than others.  This is all fine and good, but I want to know what types and brands of paint are currently on the market, what are the benefits of using one kind over another, how many looks can I achieve (like stained glass), etc.  There is a supplier index in the back, and it may be useful to those people residing in the UK, but there is only ONE supplier listed for the US.  And I didn't realize QVC was a major supplier of glass paints to the US!  NOT!Introductory paint projects should be written as scientific experiments:  very detailed and easy to replicate.  This is not the author's approach.  She doesn't even tell you the color paints needed or how to replicate the "look" of the project.  For the painted mirror project (as pictured on the back cover) she states a GENERAL list of materials (mirror, your design, glass paints, etc).  There is NO instruction on technique in the project steps!  They are trivial ... clean mirror, transfer design, paint over black outline, etc.  I suppose the author relies soley on the 1-2 pages in which she discusses techniques in the beginning of the book.  But how some of the projects looks are achieved remain a mystery as many of the "techniques" discussed should not be categorized as such.  Cleaning the glass and paint smudges are not painting "techniques".  The author gives artistic license to the new student prematurely by advising to "experiment" which actually disguises the lack of teaching direction from the author.On the upside, the book has beautiful pictures of the projects and useful design stencils.Overall, I do not recommend this book.  I was very disappointed especially given the previous reviews.  I have learned more about beginning glass painting on my own than through this book.
