Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Multiple artists have used the Vitralism art movement in the last 10 years, see Flickr group. Vitralism is 21st-century art movement that uses broken color (similar to Impressionism) and line extension to achieve a "stained glass" look and effect. Light and dark colors are painted in many layers with round sponges (the kind used for a stencil) giving the broken color a transparent quality that simulates the light through a stained glass window. see example painting. The background is done entirely with sponges. The subject may or may not be painted with sponges; brushes are used to paint the subject to create texture contrast.
