Course Outline

A superb introduction to 3D glass forming techniques using moulds to create unique and personal kiln cast glass pieces. You will work with a variety of materials to make impressions and models ready for casting. Beginning with the simple “open cast” method, you will progress onto the “lost wax” method. Come and explore kiln-forming glass under the expert tuition of Helga Watkins-Baker.
