In this two-day class students will explore 3 different techniques
of marble making. The compression technique, used
for making flowers and butterflies; the imbedding and implosion
technique used for making honeycombs and air traps;
and technique for outside designs like pinwheels and fish
scales. Advanced-intermediate flame workers will make the
most progress in this class, but it’s open to anyone with basic
flameworking knowledge. Students will be encouraged to
work at their own levels. This class will focus on a fundamental
understanding of core heat, “Fuming” of metals and color use.
Students should be comfortable working with rods.
