What was your inspiration?

I found a big glass pendant and a beautiful oriental rose print, and they look like they could perfecly go along together, but didn't know how... then my memory went back to my teenage, when I used to paint on glass and so I found a way to create a brand new item using the glass painting technique I learnt when younger, and that's what I realized.

What are you most proud of?

It is wonderful to see the way different techniques can be used to create a brand new object.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Experiment yourself with the flower print you like and if a rose is too difficult start with a easier shape, like a calla or a daisy. For every doubts don't hesitate to contact me at my personal e mail rob.mar@hotmail.it
