In this workshop, Leah will increase your skill level and expand your knowledge of beadmaking. Some of the techniques that will be covered will include floral and cased canes, surface decorations, feathering, several different types of latticino canes and clear casing. There will be an emphasis placed on design, color blending, and precise application of surface decorations with a focus on florals, perfecting your bead shapes and refining ends.

You will be using Effetre glass rods from Italy, Bullseye glass from the USA and Satake glass from Japan. A variety of materials will be provided to experiment with, including palladium and gold leaf, fine silver wire, silver foil, glass powers, multi-colored handmade frit, and dichroic glass.

Leah's style of teaching balances demonstration with one-on-one attention. Throughout the workshop, students will be assisted with their individual needs.

Students should be intermediate to advanced level, comfortable working on a propane/oxygen mix torch, and have good working control of their glass.
