Gaffer, Kugler, Reichenbach. Hard colors and soft colors. Transparent and opaque... Color can bring a whole different dimension to glass, but if new to the process of glassblowing, it can be somewhat overwhelming. This class will focus on color application and look to demystify the process. We will explore the properties of color and understand how they work together with blown forms. We will seek to simplify the process, from applying color bar to pulling cane. In addition to gaining new perspective on color, students will continue to reinforce and improve on their previous glass blowing skills.
