Class Level: All
Teacher: Kim Brill
This course is all about dilution. While we do use some powders, the projects do not rely upon powders like the earlier class did. Instead, we layer transparent colored sheet glasses with plenty of clear, fire it, and then do it again. And again. It all adds up to work that is nuanced, detailed, and very fluid. You will learn to paint with glass.
As with our other courses, this is a self-paced tutorial you can work on whenever you'd like. The approach is similar to that in our earlier Watercolor Glass course, but there are a few new twists. We still fire this work four or five times. We've figured out some things since launching the original Watercolor Glass in 2020, and so we have some new methods and suggestions for how to make gorgeous glass. And we've learned how to avoid some potential problems with compatibility.
This course includes 3 hands-on projects and a bonus video:
Lesson 1: Floral Design
This easy lesson gets you started with layering colors, using powders, and we'll show you a couple of inexpensive, cool gadgets we can't live without.
Lesson 2: Abstract Circle
A look at making a loose and lively round shape with plenty of potential for playing with design.
Lesson 3: Rainbow Project
An exercise in blending colors with sheet glass and powders, and achieving transitional tones.
Bonus Video: Taking It Further and Lessons Learned
A piece that went well, one that turned out a little ho-hum, and a real disaster. Our students love seeing the good, the bad and the ugly. We love saving them time, materials, and frustration.
