Stained Glass Painting with Michael Davis

The goal of the class is to teach the students the fundamentals of stained glass painting. We will cover tools and supplies needed. We will discuss the different types of paint to use their application and kiln firing temperatures. Examples will be shown of historic and contemporary painting techniques and how those techniques can be used for the students' own expressive goals.

What to Expect:

This class focuses on the historic techniques of painting on glass traditionally used in stained glass windows. Students will fire several paintings under 10” in any direction, but will not be instructed on assembling work into a stained glass window. Read more about how to prepare for class on our Registration Info page.

While working in stained glass, participants engage in seated and standing activities such as cutting and assembling glass pieces. Handling glass and tools may require a certain level of dexterity. Learn more about accessibility on our website.

Eligibility: No experience required. Open to ages 14 and up.

Pick-up: You can expect to bring some work to fruition during class that can be taken home at the end of class. If anything is made on the last day of class, students will have to return to UrbanGlass once notified to pick up their work.

This is an in-person class taking place on-site at UrbanGlass. Health and safety guidelines will be emailed to you upon registration.

We recommend registering for classes early to reserve your spot! We base materials, and teacher needs off of student enrollment. Early registration not only guarantees your spot in class, but also helps to ensure the class will run. Classes with low enrollment may be canceled within two weeks of the start date of class.
