Glass artist Catherine Keenan taught the first of the one-day classes in glass techniques at Flowerfield last saturday. Participants each worked on a torch to experience manipulating molten glass to create beads. They learnt various techniques in lampworking, such as making round, cylindrical, flat and bi-cone shapes and also adding pattern, eg. dots and stripes.
Some of Judith Gardiner's marbled effect beads made during the class.
Future dates for lampworking classes in August will be released soon. Keep an eye on our website:
