A Sea of Techniques

Have you been wondering how those adorable little fish are made from glass?
The second day of class is ALL about FISH! We will explore the many ways to turn a simple wrap of glass into a whimsical fish. Judy uses several techniques and tools to create her fish, most of which can be applied to all sorts of critters and sculptural beads. Bring your imagination, favorite colors of glass, tools and frits for a day of fishy fun! Fish beads with emphasis on different facial features, fins and anatomy. practice facial features, fins beads, 1 fantasy fish, 1 realistic angel fish, 1 octopus with barnacles, also a turtle, dolphin and shells.

Diving Deeper On Jan 10, 2010 - $200 (glass not included)

This advanced fish bead class is designed for those who have already taken Judy’s Fishing 101 or is familiar with the basics about making fish/sculptural beads. We will warm up by making a funky flat fish, then venture into critters made with twisties, encasement and hollows. Time permitting, a seahorse demo.
Beads made: funky flat fish; a twistie shell; hollow puffer; encased fish.

Hey guys, Just thought I'd throw my two cents in. Judy's classes ROCK. She teaches some Kickin techniques that you will definitely use (even if you never make another fish!). She is also great at helping you out if you're having heat control issues. (a plus for the control freak in all of us...) Besides, She's a blast! You definitely won't regret this one.
