Easy
My daughter wanted a cabinet that would fit on top of her dresser, I decided to build one around an old window that I was waiting to find a use for
I started by drawing an outline with liquid lead
Then layered paint mixed with clear glue
Then built a simple cabinet to fit around it, the light in this picture is bad, it doesn't show how vibrant the colors are

Are there answers to questions?
Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
You used more than wood and an old window for this project.
What about the paint? What type of paint is it? Where did you buy it? And I don't seem to understand how you managed to manipulate the layering of the paint on the body of the peacock? It's blended so well between the colors on the body. That is a hard thing to do on canvas. How did you manage to do this on glass?
And you say you used glue and paint together? And you used liquid lead?
Where did you come up with the pattern for the peacock?
I have raised peacocks and still have them. I belong to several groups on Facebook and I know many of them would love to try this project. However I can't point them in your direction without a little better direction from you as to how you painted it And how you mixed the paint and the glue together.
I love what you did it is beautiful, please help me complete this Project.
I love it so much.
You are very ingenious
What are the ratios for glue and paint? Another painter used shaving cream too but just assumed we should know how to mix the paint mixture.
