Panels

I begin with the section of panels which I learnt to do first. These involve Fusing (connecting pieces of glass through heat generated in a kiln), Leading (connecting pieces of glass by inserting their edges into the slots of lead strips), Sandblasting (using a high pressure blast of sand to remove the shine off chosen area of a piece of glass), and a little later on – Hand Painting (using special paints to draw on glass and then firing the whole piece in the kiln).
