“Mark is a very knowledgeable glass Artist, during the day he demonstrated many glass working techniques, at a manageable pace, which we then tried for ourselves.
Highly enjoyable.
Such a great day”
“I liked the class as it covered a wide variety of glassmaking techniques with a lot of interesting ideas. I would have liked some writtent material to read and give hints but I understand having stuff on paper near an open flame might be difficult.”
“This class was a Christmas present and I had a fantastic time. I don’t have any art experience - Mark was a very good teacher and I really enjoyed experimenting and making some pretty glass creations. I’m looking forward to going to the next class and learning some more.”
“It was a very well led class and I loved being able to try different glass techniques. Perfect for beginners and it was wonderful taking glass creations home.”
“My partner and I have been raving about this class since we finished it! Mark was a great, patient teacher, and gave all the assistance you'd need to bring your ideas to life. You'll get to work on real pieces almost straight away, and I was surprised how many different pieces I was able to work on and take home at the end of the day. This is a great way to celebrate a special occasion!”
“Excellent experience. Mark and Simi were fantastic teachers and this course was the perfect introduction to glassblowing. We learned a variety of techniques to handle and blow glass and made multiple pieces. I strongly recommend the all day course as it was the perfect amount of time and any shorter would have felt rushed. Can't recommend it highly enough. If you're on the fence just do it!”
“What an enjoyable day. Instructions beforehand were clear and concise and the venue is very conveniently located near bus and train stops, and with numerous venues for lunch nearby. All materials were provided and everything was top-notch. Mark Eliot is endlessly patient and encouraging - a fabulous teacher unfazed by a clumsy beginner's rudimentary efforts. Highly recommended for anyone who's thought about trying glass work. Perfect as a gift.”
“The day was an informative and enjoyable experience, a great first step to anyone with an interest in working with glass. I will definitely be looking into day 2 in the near future.”
