Art of Stained Glass Painting - 2 Day Course
Level One - Suitable for beginners
This two day course at our Bristol Studio is designed for those who wish to add a new dimension to their stained glasswork. It is a technique based course, that teaches the correct way to use your traditional stained glass painting tools and materials to achieve the best results. Students will learn how to mix paints, which brushes and tools to use, how to trace, matt, shade and sgraffito a design and how to fire the paint and silver stain on to the glass.
Students will learn the process by producing a series of pieces of hand painted work throughout the day and finally fire them in our glass kilns. We aim to give you the knowledge and experience to go further with your own development through practising and experimenting. The course will cover traditional working methods in stained glass production.
We offer a 10% shop discount for students while on the course. Discounts apply to full priced glass and accessory glass, copperfoil, fluxes & chemicals, enamels & paints (kilns, power tools, lead came, solder and sale items are excluded).

Brilliant 2 day course
By Helen ProutAttended the 'Art of Stained Glass Painting - 2 Day Course' with my sister at the beginning of Feb 24. Neither of us are artists but we found the course to be superb. It was a packed and tiring 2 days but full of 'hands on' instruction, practical demonstrations and useful hints and tips. Have come away with 4 pieces I'm really pleased with.

Excellent course
By J PatienceI attended your the glass painting course last weekend in Bristol and write to tell you that the course was excellent.
The content was perfect and we covered an amazing amount for such a short time.
Your tutor Ruth was fantastic, both informative and encouraging, and took time to explain things when we were struggling a wee bit !!
Thanks for your help,it certainly was worth all the effort to come from the Isle of Tiree Regards J Patience - * * * * *23/02/2018
