This three-day workshop will explore freehand sculpting techniques to make small but intriguing creatures in flameworked borosilicate glass. Students will work at their own skill levels on subject matter of interest to them and develop skills and techniques suitable for success. Subjects will include but are not exclusive to insects, spiders, lizards, frogs, fish, birds, etc. We will experiment with plant forms to provide a context or an environment for our "critters". There will be extensive hands-on instruction and demonstrations.

This class would be an excellent introduction to borosilicate glass for those who are accustomed to working with soft glass. Open to anyone with one or more years of experience either in hard glass or soft glass.

We still have a few seats left, and need to fill them ASAP!
