Glass Paintings

I though glass painting would be appropriate for my project as it creates a shiny yet delicate finish, like the objects found on board in the 1st class areas.

Using my drawing of the wall chandelier as my inspiration I created a panel piece of symmetry using the shapes of the crystals found on the chandelier. I also included some swirling shapes like those found on the china tea cups.
To create the background for this piece, i collages different textured wallpapers which kept with the theme colours in this piece of golds, navy and deep red.

For my next glasspainting piece I did a replica of my tea cup drawing down scaled, to bring our the shiny and delicacy of the china ceramic cup. 

using the same technique as used in my larger glass painting piece, i used wall paper as my backgroup, yet this time i patch working a few sections of floral fabric to add more flowers and leaves to the background.

From my research i learnt that tiles where very commonly found along the floors and walls of the Titanic. this lead me to the idea of extracting floral designs from my drawings of the ceramic tea cups and drawing them onto tiles. i got two blue tiles, each different sixes, and using the gold gutta i create two simply designed tiles. i then added some colour to flowers using the glass paint. i found this technique very quick, simple and effective.
