Description: The Photo Imaging class will focus on incorporating either photographic images or highly decorative patterns on glass that will be used in a stained glass project. The class will include some instruction on how to select images that will work in the process and how to prepare the sand blast resists. I have expanded the variety of sand blasting resists to include the making of both the Rayzist and Ikonics products. The class will explore the use of both glass paints and flashed glass in their projects. The first two classes are critical and not to be missed. Two extra or alternative days available to tack on to finish projects or use as flex time.
Students must have previously taken my Beginner I class.
Cost: $400 - Includes all materials to complete your project. Studio tools are available for use by students who don't own their own.

BEGINNER - MM ~ Makers Mayhem in Stained Glass ~ Wednesday Evenings
Description: This class requires a bit of experience, so it will be open only to students who have taken several classes from me. I will pull out lots of non-traditional materials for students to use including chandelier prisms, found glass objects, remnants of old church windows and whatever crazy stuff I have collected over the years. It's a really fun way to create something completely unique in the stained glass world. Students in the Makers Mayhem class may use any of the techniques they have learned in previous classes, including fusing and photo imaging.
Cost: $400 - Includes all materials to complete your project. Studio tools are available for use by students who don't own their own.
Session: 6 weeks ~ Wednesday evenings from 6:30 – 9:30 pm
