GLASS – SUMMER SESSION 3
June 16-28, 2024 (11 STUDIO DAYS)
Amy Lemaire
Beyond Tradition

Venture beyond tradition and push the boundaries of jewelry making as you explore the versatility of glass for creating wearable sculpture. This workshop will introduce you to a world of endless possibilities where traditional methods serve as a solid foundation for exploring uncharted territories of experimental technique. After practicing essential skills such as material preparation for soft glass and borosilicate, color application, and sculpting solid and hollow forms, we will explore mixed-media elements, improvised blow molds, and unique surface textures. Expect to gain a fresh perspective on the possibilities of glass jewelry, a deeper understanding of flameworking practices, and a new collection of unique pieces that reflect your personal style. All levels. Flameworking studio.
