How Do You Create a Painted Glass Portrait?

Custom stained glass provides incredible creative opportunities to produce something truly unique and one-of-a-kind. When sorting through all the different glass types, options, and colors, many forget that painted glass is a great way to add that artist touch and really showcase anything you want. The right painted glass artist can recreate anything from a portrait to one of your favorite landscapes. Portrait painted glass takes significant skill and experience but offers an incredible gift or investment for any property. So, what is the process for creating a painted glass portrait?

The Painted Glass Portrait Process for Dallas Properties

Whenever we are commissioned with a painted glass portrait, our painted glass artist does extensive research on all the components intended for the painting. If the portrait is of a well-known figure, they’ll take the time to research photographs in order to make it as life-like as possible. If you’re having a painted glass portrait done of someone you know, we’ll ask for multiple photos in order to get the likeness right. If the portrait contains more than just the head, we may get a live model to wear the clothing you want to be painted in order to get all the details right. This all helps our artist achieve the most realist representation possible. We may use props, costumes, and anything else needed in order to capture the right shadowing and texture.
