About

Learn and practice how to add detailed images to your stained glass works by learning processes including cutting glass, airbrushing glass (using an atomizer and airbrush), pen-and-ink drawing, silk-screen printing using existing screens the instructor will bring, and painting glass. No need to be an expert painter, we'll be tracing images in class. Enamels are painted on the glass surface then kiln fired onto the glass. 

You'll copper foil and solder the panel together to make a finished stained glass panel up to 12 by 12 inches.
