Portraits in Glass (Ages 6-11)
In this two-hour class, students will explore the self-portrait. After looking at examples of fine art self-portraits and discussing proportion, physical characteristics, and expressed emotion, they’ll draw a 4×6 self-portrait on paper. Next comes an introduction to various forms of glass and how they change through firing. Then, using their drawing as a guide, students will translate their self-portrait into glass using sheet glass, frit, stringer, and confetti on a base of pre-fired sheet glass. Pieces will be fired after the workshop and available for pick-up a few days later. The finished piece will have an embedded wire loop at the top for hanging.
