Saturday, October 3, 10, 17, and 24
In this four-day workshop—held on four consecutive Saturdays—participants will learn the fundamentals of traditional stained-glass painting. Working from a photographic reference, students will create their own painted glass panel using historic techniques such as tracing, matting, and silver staining, with opportunities to add personal creative touches. Finished pieces will be kiln-fired to permanently fuse the paint to the glass, then framed in lead and fitted with hooks for display in a window.
Other notes:
·This workshop will be held at the Doering Center at Bryn Athyn College.
·Previous experience with drawing or painting is preferable.
·Please wear closed-toe shoes.
·Note that attendees will be looking down at a light table for most of class.
Food and drink cannot be consumed in the stained-glass classroom but can be consumed in the main lobby areas of the Doering Center. Attendees are welcome to bring a snack to enjoy during the break and recommended to bring a water bottle with a tightly fitting lid.
