Glass Fusing Slumping Level 2 - Curved Glass Art
One day workshops with Jenny Timms & Mike Caddy

"Money well spent, shall return for more!." - Cedric

Slumped Glass Fusing - creating curved glass forms with texture, for beginners and with oplenty more to learn for those with some glass fusing experience.

On this Level 2 workshop you'll learn how to create beautiful, textured fused glass art, combining glass sheets, glass frit, crushed glass, enamel pens and stringers.

We'll teach you how to make S-Curves with a flowers or meadows or beach huts theme, like the ones shown. Depending on the complexity of your first design there may be time to make a second piece.
If you've enjoyed learning the basics of glass fusing on one of our other fusing classes, this is a fascinating next step for your new fused glass hobby!
This workshop is suitable for anyone who's already done some glass fusing - beginners are recommended to attend one of our simpler fusing classes first.

Slumping involves adding form to fused glass after its initial firing. You'll create the flat forms for your projects first, and after the first tack firing these will be 'slump-fired' in to the mould.
Once cooled your pieces will be ready for collection!

This class will equip you to create your own further slumped fused glass designs, and teach you more sophisticated fused glass construction techniques. We include a discussion on the firing schedules required for these two different processes for those interested in the more technical aspects.

The starting point for each of your projects on this class is a base layer of COE 90 clear fusible glass. We'll teach you to cut the coloured fusible glass needed to create the flowers shapes.
You'll place frit and other materials, use enamel pens and build up your pieces, ready for the first firing.
The skills you've learned on our beginner's fusing class will come in handy here.

The course cost of £159 inc VAT per person includes:

  • Suitable for Improvers - anyone who's done some fusing before
