Flameworking Intensive with Sheila Checkoway

Perfect for those who are new to glass beadmaking, as well as students who have taken a few introductory courses.  Flameworking instructor Sheila Checkoway provides a solid foundation and builds on the fundamentals of soft glass manipulation.  Students will learn to make glass beads through instructor demonstrations, discussions and lots of hands-on torch time. All materials are included.

The focus of this workshop begins with basic shapes and decorating techniques, and moves on to advanced decorating techniques - using reduction glass, glass shards, and metals - such as silver and copper foil and wire.

This workshop includes six workshop hours with a one hour-lunch break.
