Weekend Workshop 2 - Part 2

Welcome back to the studio. Your glassblowing journey in destination continues with this immersive two-day workshop, designed as the next chapter for aspiring artists. Over this weekend, you will move beyond the fundamentals and begin to truly master the craft. We will focus on developing your hand skills and building a deeper connection with the essential tools of the trade: the tweezers, jacks, and marver. This is where your technique evolves, allowing you to translate your creative vision into tangible, beautiful art. Prepare to refine your control and unlock a new level of confidence as you learn to dance with the molten glass, shaping it with precision and purpose. Your weekend unfolds as a carefully guided exploration of form and function. On the first day, you will build dexterity by creating a series of intricate sculpted objects. Feel the thrill as you craft a delicate glass flower and a graceful bird, each piece a testament to your growing skill. The second day elevates your experience as you apply these newfound abilities to larger forms. You will create a collection of three distinct vases, experimenting with different methods for designing and shaping each one. This hands-on process allows you to explore your personal style and witness your progress in real time. Our intimate class setting, with a maximum of four participants, ensures you receive personalized guidance every step of the way. This supportive environment provides ample time at the bench, allowing you to fully engage with the material and perfect your techniques. You will leave this incredible destination workshop not just with over five unique pieces of glass art, but with the skill and confidence to continue your artistic adventure.
