Heads ‘N’ Tail Glass Art – Intermediate Class

3 Weeks – $75 tuition + Glass

Heads In this class we will be creating a wall hanging using heads and tails, zinc, Rondels.

What are Heads and Tails? When glass makers create sheets of glass, the ends of those sheets can form unusual and interesting shapes. They cut the glass sheets to precise sizes when they come off of the annealing Lehr and the head ends are what is left over. Sometimes called tail ends, these glass trimming pieces are usually pretty enough to serve as a decorative piece without any changes, but they are great for art projects!

Below are a few links to more ideas.

This class will include Cyndee’s help in creating an awesome wall hanging. We will be using saws, circle cutters, came benders and much more.

Bring glass cutting and soldering equipment. Limited to 2 layers for this class.

Glass In Pieces – Beginner Class

$35 tuition + Kit $30

Glass In Pieces Glass In PiecesIn this class we will be using new and re-purposed glass of all kinds; wine bottles, beer bottles, scrap glass, broken vases, etc. Then arrange them on the wooden canvas to create wonderful three dimensional compositions. We will be working on a 8” X 10″ or 10” x 10” wood canvas that we will paint with an acrylic finger-painting technique. You will then add glass and other found items, then apply a hi-gloss resin finish that stabilizes your artwork and looks like glass.

You will do the artwork by placing your items onto the canvas, and we encourage you to bring any found items, buttons, jewelry, pebbles, beads, shells, coins, trinkets, etc., as embellishments.

Kit includes Wood Canvas, paint, resin, scrap glass & specialty scrap glass.

Bring your Mosaic nippers if you own them otherwise we have some for use in the shop.

Limit 7 Students
