Fragment Bowls Workshop with Stevie Davies Glass

Event details

Fused glass workshop using a variety of processes for you to learn and then create your own large fused glass bowl or flat art piece.

Construct layers of glass with various design elements to produce colourful bowls forms full of texture and interest. Learn to cut pieces of clear and coloured glass to construct a lattice with formal grid formations or a much more free form design with random voids and textures. There are plenty of options for you in this experimental session, all with the results of making a unique piece of glass art. There are a few bowl size/shapes for you to choose, limited by available moulds and kiln size, or make a flat panel as a piece of wall art. The materials fee covers a large bowl – approx. 33cm wide, both firings and finishes. To be able to keep the cost of this session as low as I can, we will be using mostly “offcuts” of glass rather than big pieces of colour, I feel this helps you to feel comfortable to experiment as well as creating unique makes!

Simply complete your design during the session and leave it at the studio for me to fire, finish and clean up for you. We will make arrangements to pick up a approx 3 weeks later.

I will talk through all the Health & Safety in the session but I want you to know now, you will be handling pre-cut glass pieces, they have pointy ends but with the right handling, they won’t hurt you. Book with friends or come on your own for a supportive and fun creative fused glass workshop experience. All fused glass workshop attendees receive a 10% discount on purchases from the gallery shop on the day, just a little way I can say thank you for joining me!

Booking essential via my website. Recommended for ages 13+, all under 16s to be accompanied by a paying adult. This fused glass workshop is held at my Derbyshire studio and gallery space in the middle of Wirksworth near Matlock. Workshop times: 1.30pm to 6.30pm.
