Onto another featured glass art post this week! For this post, we are featuring Manal Alhmidat below. I really like Manal’s work because it seems to be unique and not something I have seen much before. This time I included a video, so I hope everyone enjoys that too. Please leave Manal a comment and show some appreciation for stepping up as this weeks glass artist.
My name is Manal Alhmidat from Palestine. I start from home and take any glass piece like old vases, boxes, mirrors and painting on it using Pebo Vitrea 160 glass color and outliners. First I clean the glass and choose any drawing I want but sometimes I draw and design them by using Autocad (I am an architect). Then I use outliners to draw
in glass with paint and leave it for 24 hours to dry.
It all started as a hobby, but then I worked harder on more and more ideas and started becoming more creative. Now you can find a collection of mirrors, trays, clocks, vases, photo frames, and armors for exhibition and partitions in our home.
My glass art ranges in size depending on pieces: Type for partitions 2 by 0.9 meters, mirrors 1 by 0.9 meter – 0.5 by 0.6 meter

These one of a kind pieces are clearly reflecting a non-Western heritage and echo flavors from the past.
I like them very much and would like to see more.

Hey sorry everyone in the Glass Artist group, I accidentally sent you two of the same messages about this.
Thanks again Manal for sharing your interesting glass art. Its always cool to see glass art from different parts of the world. 🙂
thanks every one for support
Very nice display of work…I especially LOVE the piece at 1:18…a blue piece…AWESOME!
Very nice work – Pebeo colors blend very nicely and hold up well/are stable in direct light, must have been why you use them. : )
Brilliant! I love the abstract mind that you have!
thanks mindy , barb, cara
HI Cara, lol – my abstract mind is such that I see the possibilities & reasons – Mana’s use of pebeo for his windows was a great choice of medium.
I sometimes use Pebeo colors to get more depth in my kiln fired enameled pcs. I belong to a small group of women artists that paint with fired enamels & use Pebeo both as primary & secondary color layers.
Hi,
i´m painting on glass, and i wouls like to know what kind of paint u are using for your artworks.
