The Glass Underground

Take your fusing skills to the next level! Over the course of 5 fast paced days, you will create 6 projects.

This boot camp like class covers material from both the Tapestry class and the Beyond Tapestry class, allowing for extended explorations of ideas and pattern making. Techniques will be explored and developed as needed to achieve these patterns including multiple firings, cutting and reassembling, slumping, and coldworking and finishing.

This intensive workshop will teach students how to use glass powders to draw two-dimensional imagery in glass, exploring traditional ideas of drawing with a non-traditional approach. Kelly will cover interpreting line, value, contrast, texture, color, and composition in glass, along with technical processes like collage part sheets for sgraffito drawing and firing schedules.
