Learn to make beautiful bird and butterfly beads using a variety of sculptural techniques. 

Demonstrations will include making simple birds and butterflies and expanding to include realistic details.  We'll use a variety of reference materials for form and color accuracy. 

Techniques will include:
  • assembling canes, 
  • color mixing and overlays, 
  • heat control, and 
  • controlled application and manipulation of stringers and dots.

This workshop is appropriate for intermediate to advanced level soft-glass lampworkers.
