Artists from a variety of backgrounds have found these workshops useful and enjoyable. Experienced stained glass painters have expanded their technical skills, fluency and versatility. Artists of many disciplines, from illustrators to tattoo artists, have transferred their drawing skills to stained glass. Past students include glassblowers, fusers, and ceramicists.
