This two-day workshop will allow you to explore traditional stained-glass skills and make a panel which is constructed with lead. You will be able to make a panel which is approximately A3 in size. All ability levels welcome, although good manual dexterity is needed. If time allows you can make some small copper foil decorative pieces.
Skills and techniques taught:
You may choose to work from a selection of prepared patterns or bring along your own idea which can be developed into a suitable design.
You will be taught how to cut glass shapes to fit the design template.
Lead will be used to assemble the panel.
The panel will be soldered together and cemented to finish.
The final clean will be done the next day at home.
The tutor will bring all the materials and equipment needed, which include a selection of coloured glass for everyone to share.
