Glass Fusing - Flat Panel

Who is this course for?

LEVEL 1 and Above - This 1.5 hour class is suitable for beginners and also students who have completed other glass fusing classes 

What does the course cover?

Karen will teach you the technique of creating Decorative Glass using specialist Bullseye glass, creating your own designs in preparation for it to be fired in our kiln. Beginning by deciding on your own design - perhaps a set of Tulips or another of your choosing - you will be guided through the process of creating your design using glass.   

IMPORTANT Information - The piece will be 20cm x 20cm Clear tekta glass and this will be precut to size - you are welcome to prepare designs to that size (or cut the tekta to difference sizes for your own project)  and Karen will guide you on how to adapt and create this in glass (if possible).

Please Note - This is not a 'Frit' based class.  There will be some limited Frit available but the panels cannot be made using frit alone or majority frit - Please join our Frit Panel Class for this type of work. Your piece/pieces will then be fired in our kiln and ready for collection on a date to be agreed.

This is not a curve class - your panel cannot be curved, please see our other classes if you wish to shape your piece.

What is included in the fee?

Your fee includes tuition by Karen, the use of tools and equipment and all materials. 

Each student can make one piece of your own design (a max of 20x20cms) 

There is a maximum of 6 students per class to ensure individual attention. 

Please note your pieces are fired in our kiln and will be ready for collection at a later date.
