About this Event
You become the designer and creator by combining clear and colored glass in a mold to create a one of a kind sculpture. In this class, you will use glass fusing methods to create two to three cast shapes (approx. 3-4.5 in diameter) that will brighten your space forever. A variety of glass components, including clear sheet, colored shards, and dichroic elements, will be provided for you to use in creating a layered composition within a metal mold. Using examples and a demonstration provided by your instructor for inspiration, you will plan and assemble your project within the mold. After class, your instructor will heat each assemblage under high temperature to allow the individual glass components to fuse and flow together within the mold and transform into a unique piece of sculptural art glass that is about ¾ in thick. Completed pieces may be picked up the following week.
Your instructor, Steve Bay, is a glass artist who creates sculpture and jewelry using flameworking and fusing techniques(@stevebayglass). Steve applies his marine biology research background to capture the beauty and remarkable design of nature in his art. Class size is limited to eight people to ensure personal attention from the instructor. Participants must be at least 12 years of age. For safety, please wear long pants and closed toe shoes. All supplies and materials will be provided. Questions? Contact Steve at [email protected] .
