Glass Painting Workshop in Istanbul

Workshop Description

Immerse yourself in a unique artistic experience in Istanbul with this glass painting workshop. You will learn a traditional Turkish technique while bringing your own creation to life, which you can keep as a special memento of your trip.

Detailed Itinerary

The meeting will take place on Lüleci Hendek Street in Istanbul. We will begin with a fascinating introduction about the origins of this technique in Turkey, exploring how colored glass has been a symbolic element in mosques, palaces, and Ottoman homes for centuries.

After this historical context, you can choose from various designs, from geometric patterns inspired by Islamic art to floral and contemporary compositions. Next, you will learn how to trace lines precisely and apply translucent pigments in different colors.

After completing your painting, we will take a break for it to dry. Upon resuming, we will perfect the details and observe how light transforms your work. Finally, we will frame the piece so you can easily transport it. The activity will conclude after approximately one and a half to two hours.
