Thank you, ladies! I truly appreciate it. I'll pick one of them next friday (payday) heehee!!! 
I'll probably be the Feng...... tutorial, since it's easier to set a printed copy of instructions by my work station versus having to remember whats on a DVD! Who knows.......but I'll let you know next week!

Hi Jenn........ I'm still fairly new to the glass working world and unfortunately, I'm not familiar with all the great artists/teachers out there. How would I go about taking a class from Aki?

lilies
I just got the DVD, and it is wonderful! I already had the trowel and the lake tool that Daisuke Takeuchi uses to make his Satake glass beads. You will be amazed to see how that glass works compared to soda lime glass we normally use. And my first lily cane came out just fine, not perfect, but the lilies in my bead look great for a first time effort. Effetre did me proud, or vice versa!
I am waiting for Fengbead's tutorial as well, but couldn't wait to see the real deal. I will post my first bead here if I have not been deceived by how it looked going into the kiln! xiola

llily cane
Well, the bead lied, a little. My cane was ok, but it really requires precision, and the components of the cane are six canes on a bed of clear, fused together and pulled to make the lily cane. It is the kind of thing you hold your breath through, as you pull each part out of the kiln and try to heat it enough to attach it...I am not telling anything new...this is all in the tombodma book some people have.
I will just say that the more experienced you are the better for using the DVD. I think fengbead's tutorial will be a good introduction to the complexities of lily cane. The DVD is over $50 and you would want to be ready for it!
That said, it is truly fun to be challenged by something new, and maybe ten or twelve canes from now I might get it all right. Xiola
ps...the cane is white and clear...the whole flower disappears when you heat it to spread out the petals! YIKES.

Sandy, Aki often teaches in the US and has a wonderful studio in Nara, Japan. If you ever get to Japan it is well worth a visit. I did a private class with Aki in his studio and it cost no more than attending a group class in Australia!!
