In this fun, hands-on weekend class, students dive into the world of flameworking while creating a lively menagerie of small animals and flowers. Using clear glass as a base, participants learn to shape and sculpt forms such as animals, birds, and flowers, then bring them to life with colorful frits and glass rods. Each project introduces different techniques for shaping, sculpting, and decorating in the flame, while also building a solid foundation in torch operation, safety, and basic glassworking skills. By the end of the weekend, students leave with a collection of charming glass critters and flowers and the confidence to continue exploring the exciting possibilities of flameworking.
