Class # Dates & Times Days Sessions Tuition Master Member Tuition Supply Fee Code 6747 Feb 22, 23 | 9:30 AM-05:30 PM PST Sat, Sun 2 $ 321 $ 289 $ 80 Making a borosilicate cup on the torch is generally considered intermediate or advanced flameworking, but if you know how to make a cup in the hot shop you are most of the way there. Whether heated in a flame or in the glory hole, a bubble of glass more or less acts the same. In this intensive workshop, we will quickly move through the steps necessary to start blowing vessels on the torch. On day two we will experiment with handles, color application, and an introduction to goblets. You can expect to leave the weekend with enough knowledge to start practicing on your own. Expect to break a lot of glass and push beyond your comfort zone. Students do not need any experience flameworking but should be comfortable with manipulating bubbles in the hot shop.

Whether heated in a flame or in the glory hole, a bubble of glass more or less acts the same. In this intensive workshop, we will quickly move through the steps necessary to start blowing vessels on the torch. On day two we will experiment with handles, color application, and an introduction to goblets. You can expect to leave the weekend with enough knowledge to start practicing on your own. Expect to break a lot of glass and push beyond your comfort zone. Students do not need any experience flameworking but should be comfortable with manipulating bubbles in the hot shop.

Daniel and his team will assist every step of the way.

In the 1970's the zine was coopted by the young punk movement as a way to disseminate information and comment on current events and including poetry and photocopy imagery. In this workshop we will create our own zines starting with prompts and exercises to produce fragments to blend with stamping, drawing, painting, and collage techniques. The zines will be sewn by machine, hand or stapled. This technique is a great way to communicate thoughts and feelings quickly and record your own history.
