The Course (Two days)
This colourful workshop provides a perfect introduction to the creative and practical aspects of stained glass. The focus is on learning basic skills such as cutting, grozing and soldering which can then be put into practice as students develop their own projects. Over the two days each student will complete 2 copperfoiled light catchers to take home. No previous experience is required.
Tutor: Lilian Shaw
Lilian trained originally as a painter working in oils and pastels. Her passion for light and colour led her to pursue a career as a stained glass artist. She founded her own studio in 1986.
Lilian has many varied commissions to her name both in the UK and abroad. These include pieces for private clients, churches and the National Trust. Lilian is an experienced and enthusiastic tutor.
Materials
There is an initial charge of £10 for basic materials used on the course. This covers clear glass (for cutting practice), some coloured glass, copper foil, solder, patina and grout plus use of all tools. Larger and more specialist pieces of glass may be purchased from the tutor at an additional cost.
"Thankyou so much for a great weekend. We really enjoyed ourselves and the stained glass has been much admired! We thought Lilian was lovely and very patient with us. The whole atmosphere was very relaxed and thoroughly enjoyable." L.D. (Leeds)
