Overview of the day
At 10am we will start with welcomes, introductions and an overview of the day.
We will plan how the different layers of the sculpture will work together. Learning about colour theory and creating templates you will have the opportunity to customise the shapes of some of the layers, select which glass you want to use and design your prints.
The group will split in two, with half working with Cath in order to create a print plate ready to lino print, and half working with Alex to cut and shape the glass.
11:30am (ish) - Break for a hot drink.
Once refuelled the two groups will swap.
1:00pm - Lunch break. There are a variety of cafes within a short walk from the gallery or feel free to bring a packed lunch.
After lunch we will regroup to cover a few more embellishments, including sgraffito, stencil/template printing, and a variety of decorative fused glass techniques, before spending a relaxing afternoon completing your layers. Hot drinks will be available as and when required.
3:45pm - We will collect in your pieces ready for firing and clear down our work stations.
4pm - End of the day.
Please give one week for firing before returning to collect your sculpture.
