I think this is really good. My son tried this a few years ago and couldn't get on with it though he is very artistic.

I think you do well instinctively at whatever medium suits you and this obviously suits you very well!! :)

It's very true that!... I prefer messy crafts...things I can cut up and chop off. Glass is perfect for that all though the things that usually get cut are my hands!

Acrylic paints, well-watered. And a finish of water-based (PVA) varnish on top.
