Powder painting is the art of using ground glass in powder form to create the art of kilnformed glass. The process is different from enameling in many ways. First, the actual powder is a ground glass usually from a single manufacturer that supplies an extensive color palette. Large jars can be purchased at fairly cheap prices compared to enamel, making large-scale paintings possible
This technique is one of many variations of how to create an image on glass using broken glass (frits), and in this case powder.

The process is
The process is quite simple where dry powders are arranged on a glass sheet in any desired pattern or design. The glass is then fired in a kiln only to make the powder stick to the glass, leaving the powder in a gentle powder form as opposed to completely melting the powder into the glass.

Benefits
Many factors that give this technique a considerable advantage:
Heavily applied powders can be textured with brush strokes and other tools, and the pattern of lines drawn into the powder.
Because large-scale images may be artist's hands can be seen in powder applications such as drizzle, stains, sprays like actual paintings.
There is no chemical reaction between the glasses because the powder does not go to the full fuse. This allows any color to 'touch' other colors without any chemical reactions between colors that often produce muddy colors.
Powders can be mixed to form new colors, tints, gradations and gradations. It expands the artist's palette indefinitely, bringing glass artists closer to the actual paintings.
The powder can be wet if mixed with water and then allowed to dry. This increases the likelihood of texturing depending on what tool is used to apply wet media.
The powder can be applied in layers and then selectively removed using a small vacuum that creates an attractive pattern.
Glass can be preferred with the base color or pattern, then the topped powder provides an opportunity to have a shiny area and a soft powder area at the end.
The powder can be applied thin or thick for opacity. If applied thinly then what is beneath it (a prefire) can be shown through generating additional dimensions.
Another dimension is the addition of side effects reversed. The opposite side of the glass can be chosen in color, painted with normal oil or acrylic, or gold or silver plated. Depending on the level of font opacity coloring the color or the reflection of light from the gold leaf can add an interesting inner light.
