Glass Making Courses in Somerset
Glassification are delighted to bring you this NEW COURSE! designed, developed and taught by our very own Tina Easton. Join us to learn how to create beautiful warm glass hand/foot/paw prints.
The hand/foot/paw print course is an intensive 2-day course that teaches you all of Tina’s techniques for making hand/foot/paw prints – instruction handouts, fusing schedules, adjustable slumping techniques and mounting. We will be covering a few different techniques for making the imprints, and each student will be making one hand print using one of the techniques.
Some previous experience of fusing and cutting skills are required.
Students are invited to bring their own basic tools to the workshop – all materials required are provided.
Start time on day one – 10am
A little background about your tutor, Tina Easton.
Tina grew up in Sweden where there is a long tradition of glassmaking. She herself started working with glass 15 years ago. Much of her own work takes inspiration from her childhood growing up on the West Coast of Sweden, the World Heritage Site of Tanum, as well as the beautiful countryside around her current home in Hampshire.
