Yesterday and today I have been at the most amazing Glass Workshop. Bernie Stonor, from Kangaroo Island, has been instructing myself and other glass addicts how to make imploded glass pendants. They are the most amazing little gems - magical and mystical. The workshop is being hosted by the lovely Tracy A Brown from Wildlight Studios in East Mt Gravatt, Brisbane. Tracy is also a highly regarded teacher in her own right - so to have two highly talented people in the same room over three days is a mind blowing experience. You just can't get this sort of information from a book!.
I have included some photos of my first day attempts - Can wait to see the improvement by the end of day three. I have just put two more pendants in the kiln about 30min ago - and I feel they are 100% better than what I did yesterday - Practice, Practice, Practice.
Me and Bernie
This is a pendant that I bought from Bernie - Incredible! - Looks like underwater coral - Lets see if I can do that by Monday ( he has been doing this for 30 years - so maybe I might need more than three days to perfect this one!)
I will draw the Clucky Pattern Giveaway next week - so if you still want a chance to win - post a comment on my previous post!
Cheers Tania
