- 121+ minutes
- Full Price £120 per person (£10 discount when booked with Glass Fusing: Mosaic Fusing and Op-Art Designs)
Join Shirley Eccles for an introduction to the techniques involved in glass fusing and slumping.
You will have the opportunity to make two kiln-fired pieces and to experiment with a variety of ideas and glass materials.
In project 1 you can create either a small wall hanging, coasters, sun catcher or a wind chime.
In project 2 you will learn techniques to design your own sheet of art glass. This will then be used to form a slumped bowl or platter.
Suitable moulds will be discussed and prepared for this process as the technique will include two firings. These will be taken away for firing in a kiln and will be returned to The Base for you to collect after the course.
Location: The Lookout Studio, The Base
