You’ll learn how to use a glass outliner to create the look of traditional stained-glass leading, then bring your design to life using beautiful glass paints in a variety of vibrant colours. With a hummingbird pattern as your guide, you’ll discover how easy and enjoyable it can be to create the beautiful illusion of stained glass—without the need for cutting or soldering glass.
Nov 14, 10 am – 4 pm & Nov 15, 12:30 pm – 4 pm
In this hands-on workshop, Kit and Peter will share what they have learned about relief printing from conducting classes with artists and novices alike. We will start with simple printmaking ideas and continue on to lino and easy cut prints. Anyone wishing to print cards or textiles should think about what designs you wish to print and on what materials.
