Class description
Wonderful glass mushrooms - advanced course.
Please bring your certificates of knowledge acquired so far at the start of the course.
This great workshop is aimed at people who want to learn how to produce a glass mushroom up to 20 cm in length.
Material science is taught and I am happy to answer questions about tools and techniques and the design of mushrooms. We're working on a twin-gas burner. Then we let the fancy mushrooms cool down. You are welcome to pick up your project from my studio the following day. If you don't live nearby, I'll do the cleaning and then send you the mushrooms. This service is included in the course fees.
In my studio, you can learn the centuries-old and exciting craft of glass.
My experience also shows that the results are more brilliant when we're just the two of us. The knowledge to be imparted is also more compressed.
You and I together in the studio will bring you the greatest possible success.
The times given are my suggestions. In general, the studio is available from Monday to Saturday between 09:00 h and 21:00 h. You are also welcome to send me your suggested dates.
How does this activity work?
Together, we select and prepare the required material.
I'll show you how a glass mushroom is made and explain the individual components to you in detail.
I am happy to explain what types of decoration there are and I will show you further tips and tricks to make your mushroom a wonderful unique item.
Who should definitely take part?
The course is aimed exclusively at advanced glass artists.
You should be able to maintain the temperature in larger glass objects.
You should already be familiar with the nature and characteristics of glass when hot and melted.
You should have already internalized the statement: “When it's glowing, it's going”.
Alternatively, you are welcome to book an appointment for my basic glass bead courses level 1 and level 2.
