This course provides a rare opportunity to learn glass engraving on coloured and colour overlaid glass. Several different engraving techniques will be explored, using drill and or the lathe. The course focuses on the many options that working on colour provide for the artist engraver, whether working on flat glass – of interest to stained glass artists – or blown forms. Those who have already attended classes in glass engraving may find this an interesting extension to their skills and beginners may find it just as diverting.
