Bond's Reverse Glass Art "Olde Train Winter"

Milton Bond Milton Bond, Reverse Glass painting, Westport River Gallery, boats with lighthouseFresh on the market is an original reverse glass painting (right) by the late Folk Artist Milton Bond. For many years the noted artist lived in nearby Stratford, CT. Milton Bond's personal craft is the medium of reverse glass painting, working in a mirror world in the fine detail of acrylic, ink, and metallic foil, giving a three dimensional luminosity to the exposed glass side when exhibited. The medium was first introduced to him 32 years ago by his beloved sister Mildred, a lover of the arts. In the last 45 years, he has produced over 1,500 paintings, and been featured at the Museum of American Folk Art, NYC; the Wadsworth Atheneum, Hartford, the Lyman Allyn Museum, New London; the Grand Palais, Paris; and the John Judkyn Museum of American Art, in Bath, England; and the NY State Historical Association, in Cooperstown, NY.
