Glass Garden Angel Workshop with Diane Enger
This class will use a variety of glass and glass elements to create a “Garden Angel” to stand guard in your garden throughout the season. The base will be created with a pattern and then you’ll let your creativity go wild as you design your angel. There will be some glass cutting involved. We will review directions on cutting glass and practice glass will be available. Glass enamels will also be available to add additional decoration to your design. The angel will measure 4 inches x 10 inches and hang on a stake that will go into the ground. She will be a great addition to your garden. Limited space is available. Please register early.

Diane Enger started her glass journey working in stained glass, switched to fusing, and has been fusing glass for over 30 years. After receiving a master’s degree in art, she taught art in the Illinois Public School System, Kindergarten through Junior College, as well as gifted classes for 26 years. Diane chose to retire with her husband to the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina. She now finally has the time to be a full-time artist and fused glass teacher.

This combination creates a flow of designs intended to portray her reflections on life – external and internal. She hopes that her work inspires you to take time to reflect…
