Glass Sculpting Fundamentals
Monday 24 August – Thursday 27 August | 9:30am – 4:30pm
The World of Glass, Chalon Way E, Saint Helens WA10 1BX
This four day masterclass will explore fundamental skills for sculpting glass, starting with bit work and massello and then progressing to blown sculpture and hot construction.
Students will have the opportunity to explore the techniques and use of tools through historical
reference pieces and instructor demonstrations. Some elements will be pre prepared to allow students to focus on learning sculptural elements of the process, rather than basic glass blowing.
