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. |

Lilian trained originally as a painter working in oils and pastels.

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. |

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.

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) |
