Whether you’re an experienced glass artist or just beginning your journey, this is the class for you! Modeling Glass has been quietly revoluFonizing fused glass for several years. You’ll learn about the incredible creative potential of this product from the artist who developed it, Lois Manno. She will demonstrate how to properly mix a batch of Modeling Glass and use it to make dimensional shapes without a ring saw. Each student will mix their own batches of Modeling Glass to create a dynamic blue jay design (template provided, but students will be able to customize their piece). Students will also learn how to work with silicone molds and MG. The second project will utilize Modeling Glass to make colorful plant imprints using fresh foliage and flowers. Perfect for the glass artist at any skill level who is curious about learning new techniques that will help them achieve effects that currently require either complex mold-making or expensive equipment. Project sheets with firing schedule and other materials will be provided. Lois will have a table full of fired samples demonstrating the many ways Modeling Glass can be used to make unique works of glass art and will discuss how they were made. These are always a source of lively Q&A. The possibilities of Modeling Glass are endless…see for yourself!
