Course Description:
In a relaxed atmosphere, learn the Tiffany copper foil method and create a stained glass panel about 1 square foot in size. Put your creativity to the test and develop your design ideas with quick sketches and then into a full scale “cartoon.” Next, bring your drawing to life with shapes, colors and textures. Lastly, frame, patina, and wax your stained glass masterpiece.
Instructor: Michel L'Huillier
After studying Fine Arts and Art History in Strasbourg, France, I discovered my love for glass. I moved to Boston in 1995 and worked for eight years in a prominent stained glass studio. With almost 30 years of experience in working in the medium, I draw from three different techniques for architectural glass commission work: kiln-forming, fusing, and stained glass. I create functional fused glass objects with intricate colored inlays which are exhibited at juried craft shows: Craft Boston and Paradise City. In 2015 I received the Award of Distinction in Glass at the Craft Boston Holiday show. Since 2004 I have been sharing my passion for glass with adults, families and kids, while teaching stained glass, fusing, mosaic in studios and schools in the metro Boston area.
