Rare Chemistry I
Special Materials: Silver leaf, Silver Foil and Silver Glass
This is a one day workshop in which Holly will share her unique surface techniques involving different forms of silver and applied stringer. These forms include silver leaf, foil and Double Helix silver glass.
As we explore these techniques we will see how silver and hot glass transform one another in multiple ways.
Rare Chemistry II
Special Materials: Copper Leaf, Copper Powder and Enamels
In the first segment of this one day workshop we will explore the use of various forms of copper as a surface design element with powdered enamel as a base.
Using glass stringers, copper leaf and powders we will create patterned surfaces rich in depth and layered interest.
Later in the session the focus will turn to enamels as an additional element to create complex yet subtle, textured patterns.
Some of these workshops are one day and some are two day. Check with the studio for more details.
