 •   Advanced Glass Fusing Workshop
Excited about glass fusing? Want to learn more? Continue your education at rattarart Studios with the Advanced Glass Fusing Workshop. The main focus of this day is devoted to a couple of new ways to assemble your glass projects: "Full Fritting", and "Clear Capping". Both of these techniques allow you create a glass piece that fuses with a completely flat, smooth surface. Your imagery is captured "inside"--adding a touch of depth and a hint of mystery. Moving through two different projects we use clear frit in a completely new way from the Intro Workshop, and really push our glass cutting skills into precise and challenging directions. The day also includes a valuable booklet of handouts developed by the instructor and very informative literature gathered from the various glass manufacturers.
