In Painting Glass Hall introduces various classical approaches for suggesting the illusions of transparent and reflective glass, and paints a shimmering martini glass, an elegant ivory ashtray from Maxime’s Restaurant in Paris, and a lovely Waterford crystal glass filled with water. Included within the two-hours of demonstrations are brilliant close-up shots of Hall’s traditional brushwork, color mixing techniques, in addition to views of his studio as he discusses his paintings at different points.
Through his innovative, step-by-step approach, he outlines the processes that were used by such traditional 19th century painters as Edgar Degas and Edouard Manet. Using a clear and concise teaching approach, Hall reveals the secrets behind creating masterful paintings of glass, covering such topics as setting up foundation shapes, establishing light and dark value relationships, contrasting warm and cool colors, observing secondary shapes through the glass, and suggesting highlights and details.

The model of differentiated instruction requires teachers to be flexible in their approach to teaching and adjusting the curriculum and presentation of information to learners rather than expecting students to modify themselves for the curriculum. Classroom teaching is a blend of whole-class, group and individual instruction. Differentiated Instruction is a teaching theory based on the premise that instructional approaches should vary and be adapted in relation to individual and diverse students in classrooms.
