July 2 - 5
New York glass artist and educator Joseph Cavalieri (cavaglass.org) will be returning to Red Deer to teach this week long challenging workshop. It focuses on learning and practicing how to add detailed images to your stained glass works. In class, you will learn four processes, including airbrushing glass (using an atomizer and airbrush), pen and ink drawing, silk-screen printing using existing screens the instructor will bring, and painting on glass.
No need to be an expert painter; we will be tracing images in the class. Expect to make many samples and a finished stained-glass panel about thirty-six cm square. 'Marketing for Artists' and Art Residency Advice' lectures will be presented during class.
