Stained glass art is a form of decorative and applied art.
Students attending the program become familiar with safety regulations and study the fundamentals of drawing and painting. They learn to apply the principles of perspective, compositional and spatial planning, light and shadow, as well as the principles of color harmony and color combinations.
Through practical exercises, students learn how to transfer a sketch onto glass and outline the planned image or design using appropriate contouring materials. They select a suitable palette of stained-glass paints and, using brushes, fill the outlined sections with color, bringing the work to its final artistic form.
As a result of the program, students develop and strengthen their ability to decorate functional and decorative objects through graphic solutions and the harmonious combination of colors and shades.
