Glassfusing

Is the art of melting special glass together in a kiln and eventually make it into a 3d shape.

You learn to cut glass, how to put it together in such a way that the result is a beautiful transparent piece.

Its possible to make your own mould, to have your own personal shape.

The whole proces can take between 3 hrs and 3 times 3 hrs, 3 classes.

Ceramics

To make sculptures or daily life essentials like cups out of clay. After that color them and fire in the kiln.

The clay I use is suitable for building bigger sculptures. There are beautiful glazes to make your shape into a shiny artwork!

If you like to work realistic, make a human figure or face , I can teach you that.

And if cutlery is more your thing : come and design your personal bowl, cup or plate. Decorate with engobes and finish with a transparent glaze.
