JASON PAINTER: Hi, my name's Jason. Today, we are painting on glass. We just outlined the glass. We're going to take the design off now--or out now--and always be mindful, again, of your dot. Keep your fingers away from the primed area. Now, we're going to put the black in the eyes, and we're going to put the black in the nose, and we're going to use the angle brush. But before we actually put paint on the glass itself, we're going to get comfortable with the paint because this paint is a lot thinner than that primer we just used. We're going to want to put a little bit on the brush, and wipe it back off and just try to get it in the corner of the brush, and use the corner to paint with. Start on the edge of the eye with the corner and come down. See how thin that is. This is going to take a few steps going over and over. So, you don't have to worry if you miss a spot here and there along the edge. You're just going to try to get some of it on there, and you're not going to actually use any strokes, just kind of bring the corner in and bring it down. And rotate all the way around and it won't even matter if you leave a little bit in the middle. You can just touch that up really quick at the end. So, do that a couple of times on the paper so you can get the feel for the paint and after you're comfortable, we'll put it on the glass.
