Discover the art and technique of fusing glass with gold leaf
Thank you for visiting my website. I offer two fascinating courses to boost your skills and creativity as I guide you through creating exquisite glass artworks. The processes are unique - developed throughout my 40 years of experience and experimentation as a full time professional glass artist. This page features the online course.

Online course with one to one mentoring - "Seasons" Glass and Gold Fusion
I will be sharing my "trade secrets" ~ wonderful techniques developed over my 40 years of glass making experience. Through videos, photographs and comprehensive instructions, you learn how to create the "Seasons" range of glass artworks heat fused with gold leaf. As a great bonus, this technique produces artworks that are different, but equally beautiful, on both sides. One side glimmers and shines with vibrant fiery golds , the other glows with deep bronze and gold. The two photos above show the two sides of the same triptych.
This unique making process uses a specialist enamel developed through my lifetime of working experience. Places are strictly limited so that I can personally give everyone full one to one email or Whatsapp support. It is easy once you know how, but as with all skills it takes a little practice. To give you chance to practice I am including £250 worth of this unique enamel for free in the course fee of £250 to get you started.
This online course is a genuine skill share from glass artist to glass artist. The videos are pre-recorded so you can start the course at any time. You have access to the information for as long as you wish. Most importantly you have my full support and back up.
It's not the cheapest of processes to work with, but the results are well worth it as they are absolutely exquisite and truly unique.

In the videos I show you how to make the Tree Circle you see below. It is 27cm in diameter so it is a suitable size project for most peoples kilns. The process you learn can be scaled up or down to any size with no problems. You can also make squares, rectangles.... any shape you like ! The video shows how beautifully the artwork captures and reflects light, and illustrates how it is equally lovely on both sides.
