Painting Pulik

I've been trying new techniques. I painted each layer of glass prior to fusing. Each layer had about 4 layers of paint, with kiln polishing between each layer of paint. After a sigh of relief that the pieces of painted glass fused together successfully, I added more details (more paint and kiln polishing) to the pendants.

Lots of ideas for more whimsical sheep and puli paintings dance in my brain. Settling down to paint them is the hard part. Hugs to your Herding dogs!
