Copper Foil Stained-Glass with Donna Freeman – Robeson Art Guild
You may be able to complete the piece and take it home that day. If a second day is needed to ensure your piece is dry and perfect, we have you covered!
- Day 1, select your materials and colors, cut and assemble the pieces, and create your sun-catcher under Donna’s expert guidance. Sometimes the sun-catchers need to dry overnight before they are waxed on the second day.
- Day 2 as needed to finish up, apply patina/polish your sun-catcher.
Copper foil is a great introduction to the art of stained-glass! This is a beginner’s class where you will learn the basics of copper foil technique and create a stained-glass art piece you made yourself! The class includes basic instruction on how to design and structure your piece, use a template, cut the glass, use a diamond grinder, apply and burnish copper foil, assemble and solder the pieces together, add a hook to properly hang your completed piece, and finish it with the patina and shine you select. Donna will help you choose from 4 existing templates. You will select from the colored glass available at the Guild to make you art piece – picking your colors is fun!
