We have 2 classes running in January and February 2010. This is so that students have time to prepare for Miriam di Fiore's workshops being held at OATKA School of Glass in April. Practise, practise, practise.
“Painting with Light” refers to a set of techniques which produces painterly effects on the surface or within the glass body. Using different glass elements (glass powders, frits, stringers, enamels, and various unconventional tools) allows you to create shading, texture, and other design elements that become encapsulated within and on the surface of the piece. It is a celebration of the transparency, color and vibrancy that only glass as a medium can capture.
We will be building a palette of techniques that allows a wide range of painterly effects through specific in-class exercises, and then apply it to small studies, and larger compositions. The final project with be a thick layered landscape design. Time permitting, you will also be given a chance to work on and fire your work more than once.
This workshop is suitable for beginning through advanced kiln workers, as well as, artists from other media who want to translate their work into glass.
