Stained Glass Series: Barn with Fence

I tried something new here. I started off painting my surface all black. From there, I gently drew in the design with pastels and blocked in my big shapes with transparent glazes. These were followed by opaque layers. The end result is a "stained- glass" effect because everything is somewhat outlined in black.
Looking to the piece from online, the color changes are subtle but up close and personal the piece is full of color.
I love how this piece came out and plan to teach the process soon.
