Magic Evening

The "story" begins with an old glass cup that I bought long time ago to keep pencils in it. I recently moved into a new house and... it is time to throw things away or... to reuse them. I love to reuse!
My drowing talents are "zero" but I like to play with the colors from time to time, like a child. First I practiced a little on the paper to see if my hand remembers how to make a line. Than I cleaned the cup with terepentine. Here is the glass paint that I bought long time ago from internet. The tube is with gold paint and I used it to make the lines. The rest of the paint is translucid.
Next step.... I started to play and to enjoy the process. I made first the lines. I waited for them to become dry... like 20 minutes and then... the colors.... Pretty simple!
When I felt like the "master piece" was ready... I've left it to dry. I couldn't decide at that moment if I will put later on pencils in it, I will drink milk from that cup, sell it... give it as a present... Actually I added later some trees and I called the paint "the green street" ;-)
When the evening came... my bedroom was trasformed into a magic place.
When the light of the candle moved, the shapes from the trees and houses moved gentle too.
What a good moment to read stories.... to dream... to feel like you touch the magic!
The paint from the cup is completely dry in 2-3 days (if you don't put it in the oven). I can wash the object that I've paint but not with hot hot water, not in a washing dishes machine, I don't let it in the water for a long time.
