Glass Fusing Taster – for adults. This glass fusing taster class will introduce you to the joys of working with brightly coloured glass to design and create a glass artwork. Your work will be ready for hanging or to gift someone.
The class offers a wonderful introduction to kiln formed glass. You will gain an understanding of the materials, techniques and processes involved while producing your own artwork. You will design and complete a piece of fused glass, size 12cm x 12 cm, which will be framed for you after the class.
This glass fusing taster session is about arranging and layering pieces of glass together. They are then kiln fired over a 24 hour period, at controlled temperatures, where the glass becomes molten and fuses together as it cools, creating a beautiful image. There is no glass cutting involved in the Taster session. All class material, kiln firing and a small picture frame are included in the workshop fee.
After the firing process your work will be prepared and framed for you ready for collection, approximately 7 to 10 days after your class. The picture frames available are a pale wood colour or white. Midweek or weekend sessions are available, choose session a, or b below to suit your availability. No previous experience of working with glass is required.
