Going Coastal
Going Coastal
We’re pleased to introduce an exciting new Sea-themed, one day course suitable for beginners upwards.
If you’ve always fancied trying Glass Fusing but are unsure of what to make or feel that you are lacking inspiration then this fantastic new course is surely the one for you.
There will be an instructional session on glass cutting then students will experiment with System 96 fusing glass to undertake three fun projects:
Under the Sea
The first project is made using a combination of UGC Artisan paints and inclusions of copper and brass to make a fabulous underwater scene. You’ll learn how to use the Artisan paints to give lovely, controlled bubbles and a hanging chain will be attached to allow this piece to be proudly displayed.
Onshore/Offshore
This second project will be making either an onshore beach hut or offshore boat themed scene using glass, frit, stringers and UGC paints from the NT range, to enhance your design. Once fired, the piece will then be slumped into an attractive free-standing curve.
The Sea
The final project is a light catcher in sea blues and turquoises choosing one of 3 alternative ways to cut and arrange your colours.
We offer a 10% shop discount for students while on the course. Discounts apply to full priced glass and accessory glass, copperfoil, fluxes & chemicals, enamels & paints (kilns, power tools, lead came, solder and sale items are excluded).
This is a LEVEL ONE course - Suitable for beginners.
