The Architectural Glass Centre, the commercial arm of the Swansea School of Architectural Glass, is continuing its programme of glass-painting workshops and masterclasses with Jonathan Cooke in the autumn of 2016. The dates of the proposed workshops are as follows:
Glass-painting: 16–19 September
Silver stain and enamel: 20–22 September
The glass-painting workshops are run over three and a half days, and the silver stain and enamel over two and a half days. The workshops are suitable for beginners or for those with previous experience of glass-painting. Jonathan will demonstrate glass-painting using a technique whereby a number of layers of paint can be built up prior to firing. He will also discuss materials, tools, and firing schedules. During the workshop, there will be ample time for participants to practise the techniques and to produce samples.
Further details on all courses are available from Amanda Hughes (01792 481199, amanda hughes@sm.uwtsd.ac.uk) or Alun Adams (01792 481084, alun.adams@sm.uwtsd.ac.uk). A course at Jonathan’s studio in Yorkshire may also be available earlier in the year; visit his website for further details.
