    INTERMEDIATE LEVEL WORKSHOP

    Intermediate:  Able to design and create simple projects with minimal guidance; trained on all studio equipment.  Fusers are learning about special firing programs.

    Have you ever wondered about the design process?  Have you ever wanted to create your own design and creatively claim a piece as your own from beginning to end?



    In this class we will explore how to design a geometric piece using straight lines and curves as a starting point.

    The instructors will share how they approach design and share techniques that have worked for them. 

    After the design creation....then what?  How do you bring it to life?  How do you choose your colour palette?  How do you transfer your design to glass?

    There will also be time for a question and answer period.

    Then you will begin to work on your own design and hopefully when you leave the class you will have your "jump start" that you can turn into a unique, individual, and creative piece of art.


    You will need to bring:

    *2-3 pieces of 12X12 paper divided into a grid of 1/2" squares

    *pencil

    *ruler

    *eraser - the white ones work best

    *thin sharpie marker

    *geometry compass/protractor - we will have some extras there if you need one

    *closed toed shoes

    INTERMEDIATE LEVEL:

    Intermediate: Able to design and create simple projects with minimal guidance; trained on all studio equipment. Fusers are learning about special firing programs. 

    Fossil Vitra is the process of layering powdered frit on a dried leaf, fern or flower, and firing until the organic matter burns away and a frit impression is left on the glass.  It is helpful if you have had experience using powdered frit.


    On a 9x12 tile, you will make one 6x6 piece.  Optional: you may also fit one 4x6 or 4x8 project on the same tile.

    In preparation, choose a leaf, fern or flower; flatten it and dry it between paper towels for at least a week before the workshop.  The flatter the leaf, the easier it will be for the frit to stay in place.

    Choose your base glass and frit colors in contrasting colors for greatest effect.

    You Must wear a P100 mask--no substitutes!  You may bring your own powdered frit, or you may use the Instructors' frit for a $2 charge.  In addition, please bring:

    ·         white or off-white glass, 6x6 and 4x8 (optional)

    ·         clear glass the same size

    ·         9x12 tile and papyros to cover the tile

    ·         Dried flat ferns, leaves, or flowers

    ·         Powdered frit, if you have it; or use the instructors for $2 cash.

    ·         Tweezers, paint brush, plastic spoons

    *            Frit tools, if you have them: red frit sifters, funnel, vacuum

    ·         Aerosol hair spray (unscented)

    On Day One, you will create your design and fuse it.  On Day Two, you will apply clear powder to the fired piece, cap it with clear glass and full fuse. You will pay for the first firing on the 9x12 tile, after Day 1. The second firing will be based on the size of your project(s), paid separately after Day 2. A third firing to slump is optional. 

    General supplies to bring to class: 

    * Glass cutting tools: Toyo Cutter, Running Pliers, Grozers, Nippers, Cutting Surface (Quilt-type mats work best)

      ADVANCED FRIT ROOM WORKSHOP

    If you would like an entry level class for working with ENAMELS, this is for you.  Many have seen my framed Poppy pictures in the studio -- that is what we will be doing.  This is not a complex class, but the instructions are crucial when working with enamels.


     


    There will be a $5 fee as I am supplying the enamel, medium, squeegees, paint brushes and the use of my silk screens and almost everything else you will need to complete this project.  You literally do not need to buy supplies as they can be expensive.  I want you to experience using this method before investing in it.

    You will need to bring:

     

    A 12" x 12" piece of Opaque White glass that we will cut in class

    Your p-100 mask.  

    8" x 8" or larger cake pan for cleaning the silk screen.  Dollar store has aluminum pans that are fine for this

    Some paper towel for clean-up

    Measuring spoons for measuring the enamel and medium into the container that I will supply

    A hair dryer is essential.

    Toothpicks or craft knife

    Butter dish for water

    A 5" x 7" frame of your choice.  This is essential to have the first day for this project.

    Your cutting tools

    Your firing ticket

    INTERMEDIATE LEVEL

    Does your fired project have a wonky edge? Does your bowl wobble? Our lap grinder can help you. It uses ever finer grits to make your project smoother and more finished. In this training workshop, you will learn safety tips; how to set up the lap grinder; how to change wheels and clean them; and how to clean up the grinder at the end.

    Please bring 1-3 fired projects to work on.

    The lap grinder can be messy, especially the first time. Wear old clothes or an apron; and old closed toe shoes. I recommend you remove your rings, bracelets or watches; and tie back long hair.

    This equipment training does not count toward the one-workshop-per-month. 

    Please contact Jayne Becker @ 209-890-5774 with any questions.

    Beginner Level Workshop

    Learning how to cut basic shapes and follow a line; familiar with basic tools and supplies. Fusers understand full, contour, tack, slump firing programs.

    In this class you will have a choice between 2 different fish.  Choose the colors for the fish you want to make.

     

      


    You will need a 9x12 tile which can be checked out before the class.  Instructor will provide a template for each fish.  You will need papyros paper for the tile, a sheet of 6x8 clear and any other glass color and embellishments you want to use for your fish.  I will say one is on the easier side to make the other is on the harder side.  Grinding glass for these fish is discouraged.

    INTERMEDIATE & ADVANCED LEVELS

    Intermediate:  Able to design and create simple projects with minimal guidance; trained on all studio equipment.  Fusers are learning about special firing programs. Advanced:  Able to design and create complex projects independently; familiar with specialized tools and supplies. Fusers are familiar with all firing programs. Join us in the classroom to make a colorful 6” pinwheel (see pictures) that can be used as a sun catcher.


    This project is constructed by creating two layers of curved “swoop” shapes. The “swoops” will be cut from 3” wide strips of colored glass. Each layer uses 13 “swoops”. The instructors will have swivel hangers available to buy for $1.25. I really like the look of using all transparent, but you can use both transparent and/or opalescent.

    See the chart below for help deciding how much glass you need depending on your design:    

    * If using one color - you’ll need to bring two 12”x3” strips of that color & one 4”x3” strip of that color.    

    * If using two colors - you’ll need to bring one 12”x3” strip & one 4”x3” strip of the 1st color.  you’ll need to bring one 12”x3” strip & one 4”x3” strip,of the 2nd color.    

    * If using three colors - you’ll need to bring one 12”x3” strip of each color.    

    * If using the rainbow colors - you’ll need 4 “swoops” of five of the colors & 6 “swoops” of one color. (I would suggest       bringing one 7”x3” strip of each color.) You’ll also need to bring: a thin black Sharpie,  a 9”x12” tile to build your project on, kiln paper cut to 8”x8”, a container to wash your “swoops” in, and a lint-free towel, plus the things listed below.

    General supplies to bring to class:

    * Glass cutting tools: Toyo Cutter, Running Pliers, Grozers, Nippers, Cutting Surface (Quilt-type mats work best)

    * Glues: Elmer’s (clear or white), Needle nosed bottle with non-aerosol hairspray * Writing Tools: Black Sharpies (fine and regular), Pen & Pencil

    * Other helpful items:Tweezers, Toothpicks, A carrying box for projects * Safety Items: P-100 Mask, Safety glasses, Closed-toe shoes, Band-aids

    * Bring a firing ticket - firing cost will be $3.50 - contour fuse.
