- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Reverse painting is a method of glass art. The artist paints the back of a glass panel so the finished work can be seen from the opposite side. The technique is centuries old and pieces can be found in a variety of art styles. Browse a selection of reverse painted pieces on 1stDibs.
- How do I reverse paint on glass?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The first step in reverse glass painting is to select your design and to transfer it to a pane of glass. From there you can paint in your design. Once the paint is dry and set, you can proudly display your artwork from the unpainted side that will have no exposed paint and will be less prone to chipping.
