Wow, just finished firing the students work from another fab workshop at
The Beetroot Tree Gallery. You guys never fail to astound me with the level of creativity and number of new ideas/designs you come up with!
As usual, I started everyone off with a very quick task using pre cut Bullseye glass. We layered small metal inclusions, thinking about texture and confetti and frit for colour....
 |
| Before... |
 | |
|
| And after. |
So, the general theme of the day with Fused Glass Landscapes but I never hold participants to this....
 |
| We had Abstract Shapes by Mavis. | | |
 |
| Seasonal Trees by Jackie |
 |
| Gold and Yellow Shapes by Rebekah |
 |
| Flowers by Frank |
Every one of them beautiful. I do want to draw particular attention to the set of works created by Karen. Her use of metal inclusions to create texture and the subtle/atmospheric colours of glass used are a true inspiration.
 |
| Before firing. Look at all the different components... |
 |
| Bit of a close up with the textured metals |
 |
| Three fired panels. The photos don't do them justice so sorry about that! |
As usual, more images from this workshop (and more) can be found on my
facebook page!
Keep in touch!
