These works of art were not painted on canvas as you might expect, but on glass. They are the artworks of Elsa Kolesnikova.  These drawings were made in watercolor and sealed with enamel. It seems that due to the complex technique of such pieces, any error made will require the artist to start afresh. Also, it is impossible to duplicate any of these pieces, which makes each work one of a kind.

The beauty of painting on glass is also the added effect of light. The paintings change in color tones depending on the light that is upon the glass. It is often said of these glass art pieces that they bring a sense of warmth and fire to those who look upon them.
