This all-levels workshop introduces students to hot glass sculpting through the creation of a heart-shaped glass form. Participants will learn basic studio safety, become familiar with essential glassblowing tools, and work with an instructor to plan and execute a simple design using colored glass.Students will encase their design in clear glass and shape it into a heart form, with instruction emphasizing controlled sculpting, symmetry, and clarity. Because glassblowing is a collaborative process, students will take turns assisting one another throughout the session.
Finished pieces require overnight cooling in the annealer and will be available for pickup at Waterfall Arts on a later date. Shipping is available for an additional fee.
This workshop is open to all levels, and no prior glassblowing experience is required. Students currently enrolled in Introduction to Glassblowing are welcome to participate for additional practice, and more experienced students may use this session to refine sculpting techniques for non-round paperweight forms.
About the instructor: Brier-Rose Werner Brown is a self-taught torch work artist who specializes in botanical jewelry. She has been blowing glass for 13 years.
