Vintage Surfing Stained Glass Pattern

Dear friends, today we want to present you with a beautiful pattern with a Volkswagen Camper Van and a surfboard! What could be better than the spirit of travel and the freedom that these items carry!
By creating such a suncatcher with your own hands, you will give yourself a wonderful reminder of your past and upcoming trips!
Surfing is one of the most ancient extreme entertainment. It is believed that the first surfers were the inhabitants of the Hawaiian Islands. The art of riding on the ocean waves in those early days was available only to a select few. The local rulers of the Hawaiian Islands tried to rule not only on land but also on the water expanses.

They considered it a privilege to ride on boards and tried to make this entertainment not available to ordinary people. In those cases, when cases of surfing by ordinary people were detected, those who encroached on this royal entertainment were punished with the death penalty.

In the modern world, surfing is a symbol of freedom, bright life, and happiness! And the Volkswagen Camper Van has become a symbol of travel and freedom – it has been and remains one of the most popular modes of transport for hippies and travelers.

That’s why we decided to put this car and surf on our pattern! A sunset and a palm tree perfectly complement the image!

Black and white JPG file

– One-line file with stained glass pattern and 300DPI resolution
This allows you to scale the drawing yourself to the desired size using programs such as the resizing tool.

Color JPG file

– Painting stained glass with a pattern. Will help you figure out the color combination. Any glass can be used. I work with SPECTRUM and Wissmach glasses. And in some patterns, I give the layout according to the recommended glasses.

Multi-page PDF

I have already taken care of the scale and here are the optimal ones (in my opinion :)) After purchasing, download the PDF file, print it on an A4 sheet, and glue it with labels. And you will get a full-size stained glass window, which is already there, with which you can work immediately. This is probably the best way to get a physical pattern from an electronic file.

SVG vector file

If you need a different size for the pattern, it’s easy to do because I put it in the SVG file.
Easily change the picture’s proportions, the thickness and color of the lines with one movement of the mouse, scale to the desired size and perform all these operations without losing the quality of the picture.
Any vector graphics program is suitable for working with SVG. Freeware is the Inkscape graphic editor.
