    For gold glass color.. You can get gold powder and mix it with camel medium 2. You can also use hobby ideas acrylic gold or if u want a solvent based glass color . There is a brand called sapphire . The sapphire products are available only in Delhi . U have to order and get the paints. My teachers knows the address . Will soon get it from her... Or u ll get the glass solvent color in pebeo brand with a medium to mix too.. For marble painting u can use hobby ideas acrylic colors..

    It's all ur wish of what to use. But it's simple to mix colors actually.. Get a green , lemon yellow and ochre colors .. If u mix green with lemon yellow ull get parrot green. If u change the ratios of the mixture u ll get different shades of the green .. According to me u ll enjoy painting u ll find new colors of ur own.. If u don't enjoy dn don't stick with it.. And also camlin acrylic tubes gives some quality to the work... If u are doing dry work like stippling n lk tat dn don't use fevicyl .. Cos fevicrl is more liquid that the tube.. Tube colors are thick n u can add water of ur choice..

    For stained glass painting -just ask for solvent based colors there are brand lk hobby ideas , Camel and pebeo vitrail. Pebeo colors are of high quality n little costly but the quantity is double Dan hobby ideas or camel.. N u can buy black outliners or any other color in camel or hobby ideas .. According to hobby ideas are the best..

    For reverse glass painting -(usually it will be Devine images) use hobby ideas acrylic colors .. For out line u can use either black paint with brush 000 or an outliner.. If its a gods image use rotrring pen .3 with rotrring ink..

    All the best for ur work

    From my knowledge I think all surface is used in wood also in marble etc.. Acrylic colors can also be used but in case of acrylic colors one must coat the surface with primer first if it's wood u ve to use wood primer available in hardware shop .. In case of all surface acrylic colors one need not apply primer on the wood..

    Coffee painting is easy, in the sense that, you just make decoction, and dilute with water into 4 or 5 shades and do a monochromatic painting.
