    Hi MJ,

    There are tons of resources online.. even youtube videos with step by step instructions.
    Decide the type of painting you are interested in and do the research.

    If you have any specific Questions on oil painting let me know. I may have some answers. :)

    Re: help me to paint in glass bowls

    hi Vibusha..

    I have painted glass bowls with solvent based glass colors and just for assurance , I gave it a coat of varnish to protect it during wash. However, to safeguard the paint, it is always better to wipe off the dust with a moist cloth...see my attachment and also have a look at my previous ,older threads posted by me for my older painted glass bowls samples...You have to first outline ur design with the outliner provided with the glass color-kit and then paint it...

    Hobbyideas Glass etching materials are available at big craft stores and they are pretty safe and easy to use...

    hope this info proves useful to u....

    Painting on canvas is fun and a great way for your work to be everlasting. There are lots of canvas materials to choose from. I hope this brief article has helped to clarify the three main canvas painting surfaces.
