This is how we roll at Waterfall Arts Glassworks. In this workshop\, we will be reusing empty glass beverage bottles to create unique sculptural pieces.\n\n \n\nWe will pick up bottles in the annealer on a punty or a collar\, and bring them up to working temperature in the reheating furnaces. Then\, we can pull\, twist\, or further inflate the bottles into something new! Because bottles are made from glass with different chemistry\, we will need to work deliberately to make the changes we envision. Students will improve their ability to "read" the glass and manage heat. There will be an emphasis on moving more quickly and confidently to take advantage of reduced working time before the glass cools/stiffens. Finished pieces are not guaranteed\, but leave room to amaze yourself with what you create! X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:Reduce\, reuse\, recycle! This is how we roll at Waterfall Arts Glassworks.
