Fused Bowls and Vases with Jazz Dixon

@ Standard Price Immerse yourself in the beauty of summer blooms and use them as your inspiration to create a unique statement glass piece for your home, whether you decide to make a large bowl, platter or vase. You will be welcomed with refreshments before spending the first part of the morning walking around the beautiful flower fields observing and drawing some of the amazing flowers. This part of the day will help develop your ideas for your own glass piece. Time will then be spent creating some simple guided sketches, taking time to observe the shape and colours of the flowers. Jazz will then give you a brief talk and introduction to fused glass and the range of materials available before moving on to designing your own unique statement glass piece. This can be a square platter 30cm x 30cm, a glass bowl 30cm diameter, or a glass vase approximately 25cm tall. Jazz will guide you through the practicalities of the design process and show you how to incorporate the ideas from your sketches. After breaking for lunch (please bring a packed lunch with you), you will create your design using a wide range of coloured accessory glass, all under Jazz’s expert guidance. Your finished design will be taken away and fired. It will be available for collection from West Sussex or East Sussex, or we can arrange for your piece to be posted to you in approx. 3 weeks.
