David continues working on the assembly of the window, adding one piece of glass at a time. |
|
|
The window grows slowly. |
|
|
Michelle prepares the border pieces of the window for the application of the inscription, by covering the pieces with a resist material and them cutting out the Hebrew letters, exposing the glass underneath. |
A specialized paint is applied to the exposed glass. |
|
|
|
Michelle applies the paint to the border pieces of the window, creating a thick, even coat. |
|
|
|
After drying, the resist is removed, leaving the powdered paint, temporarily adhered to the glass. |
|
Finally, the glass pieces are placed into an electric kiln, which fires the glass to a temperature at which the paint fuses to the glass, becoming a permanent part of it. This is the actual act of "staining" the glass. |
