Take your fused glass artistry in an exciting new direction with this 3.5-day hands-on workshop in reverse enamel painting with glass artist Cheryl Chapman. Using Fusemaster high-fire opaque enamels on clear glass, you’ll discover how to create detailed, luminous, and expressive works of art using Cheryl’s unique multi-stage technique.

Over the course of the class, students will:

  • Learn how to mix enamels with different mediums for various effects
  • Work in reverse, layering imagery from front to back
  • Explore grisaille-style texture, opacity control, and color blending
  • Practice Cheryl’s four-stage enamel painting and firing process
  • Create one finished 8x8" artwork and several smaller study pieces

This workshop is focused on technical mastery—helping you build the skills and confidence to continue developing your own enamel painting style after the class ends. Whether you’re brand new to painting or looking to expand your glass skills, this course provides a supportive space to explore storytelling, color, and fine detail in glass.

No prior painting experience required. Students will be contacted prior to class with details of what to bring to the class (all glass and enamels are included).
