We are going to be honored with having Steve Sizelove do a two day weekend workshop at our studio in Jacksonville Beach, FL just two blocks from the beach on May 20th and 21st of 2006. Both days are eight hour days and Sizelove will teach his fundementals of flameworking focusing on vessels and goblets. His description is as follows on his website:

Building on Your Fundamentals
In this workshop, Steve will guide students toward a more complete
understanding of borosilicate hollow work. The emphasis will be placed
on heat base and heat gradation to create color tubing. Continuing the
discussion of heat, sections of tubing will be used to demonstrate that
the base shape of a bubble can become any hollow form, from goblet
cups and feet to encalmo sections to vessels, etc.
Steve will demonstrate the proper use of jacks, cup shears, and diamond
shears to shape the bubble into the desired form. Specific forms and tubing
techniques will be flexible, allowing students to guide the project toward their
specific interests.
A tuition of $350.00 is required for the full weekend. If you're in the area or feel like a bit of travel for a great opportunity to expand your flameworking skills, please come join us. As of now there are three spots still available.
To reserve your spot we require a $100.00 deposit, please email us for more info at

We hope to see you there, as we are very excited about hosting this workshop.
