Strong line quality and solid color saturation are powerful design tools glass fusers take advantage of to create eye popping art. Now combine these tried methods with the gradient blends and soft washes achieved through painting with frit and you can push your work from ordinary to extraordinary.  

Lisa will show you through demonstration and hands-on exercises the many methods she employs to make dynamic effects with the application of glass frit and powders. Each student will complete several projects, and leave class with a renewed appreciation for the infinite artistic possibilities glass fusing offers. You’ll immediately be able to apply your new found talent for painting, shading and blending to create full bodied works of art just like the great masters. 

Students will work on a scale versions of the projects shown.

I'm looking forward to seeing YOU in class!
