- 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.

- Can I paint my Chinese cabinet?1 Answer
Lotus GallerySeptember 23, 2020Yes, you can paint your Chinese cabinet, though unless it is in poor condition, doing so is usually frowned upon. You will have to sand down the surface beforehand, as most Chinese cabinets have a lacquer finish.
PAGODA REDOctober 7, 2020One of the esteemed pursuits of the traditional Chinese scholar was landscape painting, known generally as shān shuǐ. Capturing the beauty of nature within a balanced composition is considered a conceptual feat achieved only by the hand of a master.
