I absolutely love your style of making stainglass! The form and colours are amazing! And the painted details like the dandelions add a little more life and magic to it. Your style I would put somewhere between Mucha and Gaudi: Mucha paints beautiful, detailed stories in his works, makes a perfect picture on glass, while Gaudi "colours" the light in the room with his stainglasses; you do both in the same time with a touch of modernity. This is almost whichcraft 😁 in a good way, of course 😊.

I appreciate how you pointed out that the medieval piece's lead lines were repairs. I'm glad they didn't try to remake the original glass and kept that to keep the history. On the next repair I would hope they would use thinner lead lines with kintsugi (gold) technique

Thank you for the nice Video. Before watching this video, I considered the leadlines mostly as a necessity, as a sort of limitation. But now I think more, if you cannot beat them, join them !

Very interesting video Derek, thank you.When I first started in stained glass I had no previous experience and thought that the lead got in the way of the image I was trying to create. After I got some experience it dawned on me (Doh!) that they are an integral part of the image. I don’t think my work has improved very much over the years, but at least I know what I’m trying to achieve even if I don’t get there. I have learned so much from your videos and the talks you have done at the GBMGP, thanks.

Hi Foot Loose, great to hear you get something worthwhile from the vids ! I think we all thought lead lines 'got in the way' of the design, and it takes time to realise they can be a really important bit of the whole :)

Great video, I always seem to struggle with the designing process and where to put lead lines to the point I just give up :( for instance how would you go about knowing where to put the lead lines of a picture of a renaissance angel painting for instance?

@DerekHuntArtist 2 жыл бұрын

Ah ha! That’s a tricky one as I cant see the image in question ! I suppose the idea is to design with the lead lines as a key part of the design, rather than an afterthought. Good luck and let me know how you get on 🙏🙂

@kizzywitch 2 жыл бұрын

@@DerekHuntArtist Yes that would make more sense to design with the lead lines as a key part of the design. I don’t have an image that I’m working on at the moment of an angel but I really want to because I love angels…. The idea was to turn a picture of a renaissance angel into a stain glass cartoon but easier said than done for a novice like myself 😬

Hello Derek Im Learing to make grisaille...I dont have the oven actually...about the line (with trementine base) when I have to make some corrections on the dry line do you think I have to make all again? Do you show in one of your videos how to make corrections on it? Thanks and greetings from Italy

@DerekHuntArtist 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Fabrizia, thank you for your question - I had to Google trementine 😄 It is pine oil yes? So try mixing your paint with clear vinegar and leave for 24hours. Then you can scratch your lines to make corrections. If you want to paint over the lines again, this time mix the paint with water and repaint over your original lines. Vinegar first, then water second. That way the paint will not lift off when you paint over it. Ok? Hope that helps, let me know how you get on. 🙏🙂

Great video, I’ve visited Ely Stained Glass Museum and it is brilliant. You are so close to the pieces on display. It’s inspiring and a place to revisit and revisit ☺️ So are you saying you decide on lines before you draw the design or draw the design then decide on where the lines go? Does it matter which way you do it?

@DerekHuntArtist 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Sharon, glad you’ve been to Ely stained glass museum - it’s brilliant! So I’m saying take how you place your lead lines as seriously as how you do the coloured design - they’re not just a background thing to hold the glass together, they are a really strong part of the whole design ( as important as the coloured bits) 👍🏼🙂

Hi Derek, is there a glue one can use to repair a line crack

@DerekHuntArtist 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Seraphena, thanks for your question. You can use a number of products to edge bond crack together. Here are a couple of ways. HXTAL Epoxy Adhesive is an ultra pure resin that remains water white (clear and totally transparent) over a long period of time even with exposure to direct sunlight. This is an exotic and very high-tech adhesive that is far more sophisticated than hardware store epoxy adhesive, although it is a little more than twice the cost of most of these cheaper epoxies. Here is a supplier in the UK www.creativeglassshop.co.uk/page/30/hxtal-nyl-1.html The alternative is to use a non-acid neutral cure clear silicone glue which will give more flexibility to the repair. This can be purchased from a number of hardware suppliers. Hope that helps, Best wishes, Derek
