I’m really excited to launch my new 3-day course: screen printing your own images onto glass, using glass. It’s suitable even for complete beginners, and you’ll leave with stunning results and beautiful, personal pieces to take home.

You’ll learn to turn your photos and drawings into silk screens, then print them onto glass in two ways: with powdered glass frit, which fuses into bright, gem-like colour, and with kiln-fired transparent enamels, which add fine detail and rich layers. Together they open up a whole new world of possibilities, and you’ll leave with the skills and confidence to keep printing at home.

Day One: From image to screen
We’ll turn your images into stencils and transfer them onto silk screens, and try out other stencilling techniques too. The day ends with a kiln firing ready for day two.

Day Two: Printing with glass
You’ll print with powdered frit onto glass. Once fused overnight, your prints become bright, jewel-like transparent images.

Day Three: Layering it up
You’ll print onto your fused panels with coloured enamels and stained glass paints, building up layers on the front and back for depth and detail.

Good to know

• All materials and equipment are included. I use float glass and compatible frit, but you’re welcome to bring your own fusing glass, and I can supply Bullseye or Oceanside at cost.

• There’s a maximum of 4 students, so you get plenty of one-to-one help.

• My studio is near Guildford (GU4 7QD), 25 minutes by train from London Waterloo.
